Dynamic Columns in a Matrix
- 3 years ago
Hi , Anonymous
Thank you for your quick reponse!
According to your description, you want to "show six column not three". Right?
For your needs, we need to create separate tables for the columns to implement your needs.
Here are the steps you can refer to :
(1)We need to click "New Table" and enter this:Table 2 = ADDCOLUMNS( ADDCOLUMNS( CROSSJOIN( ADDCOLUMNS( FILTER( ALL('Table'[Date2]) , [Date2]<>BLANK()) ,"Month" , FORMAT( [Date2] , "mmmm")) ,{"ACTUAL","TARGET"}) , "Column NAme" , [Month]&" "&[Value]) , "Index" , SWITCH( TRUE() , MONTH([Date2]) =1 ,1 , MONTH([Date2]) =2 ,2, MONTH([Date2]) =3,3, MONTH([Date2]) =4,4,MONTH([Date2]) =5,5,MONTH([Date2]) =6,6,MONTH([Date2]) =7,7,MONTH([Date2]) =8,8,MONTH([Date2]) =9,9,MONTH([Date2]) =10,10,MONTH([Date2]) =11,11,MONTH([Date2]) =12,12))And we do not make any relationships between tables.
(2)We need to click "New Measure" and enter this:
Measure = var _value = IF(MAX('Table 2'[Value])="ACTUAL", CALCULATE( SUM('Table'[ACTUAL]) ,TREATAS( VALUES('Table 2'[Date2]) ,'Table'[Date2])),CALCULATE( SUM('Table'[TARGET]) ,TREATAS( VALUES('Table 2'[Date2]) ,'Table'[Date2]))) return IF(ISFILTERED('Slicer'[Quarter]), IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Quarter])="Q1" && MAX('Table 2'[Index]) in {10,11,12} , _value , IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Quarter])="Q2" && MAX('Table 2'[Index]) in {1,2,3} , _value , IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Quarter])="Q3" && MAX('Table 2'[Index]) in {4,5,6} , _value , IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Slicer'[Quarter])="Q4" && MAX('Table 2'[Index]) in {7,8,9} , _value )))) , _value)(3)Then we can make the [Column Name] field sort by the [Index] column:
(4)Then we put the measure and the field we need on the visual and we will meet your need :
When i select Q1, the result is as follows:
Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!

Hi,
This is sample data
| Date | Value | Number | Name | Owner | Actuals | RAG | Target |
| Jul-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | RED | 250% |
| Aug-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | GREEN | 250% |
| Sep-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | 250% | |
| Oct-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | AMBER | 250% |
| Nov-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | NONE | 250% |
| Dec-22 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | 250% | |
| Jan-23 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | 250% | |
| FY23 Q1 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | 250% | |
| FY23 Q2 | CREATE | 1 | Pipeline Coverage: Growth (%) | KA Turner; J. Ieraci; P. Renders | 1 | 250% |
So Q1 is FY23 Q1 from the sample dataset. I want to display Oct to Dec (three columns) for actuals that is in text format
Sorry, I know now what you mean.
FY Q1 is July to Sep
FY Q2 is Oct to Dec
Fiscal year 2023 started July 2022 to June 2023.
