Dynamic Measure Headers Based on Two Different Date Slicers in Matrix

Hi everyone,

I have a matrix visual in my Power BI report that contains two measures in the Values section.
Each measure is calculated based on a different date slicer.


For example:

Measure 1 is controlled by Date Slicer 1
Measure 2 is controlled by Date Slicer 2


Now, if a user selects:

October 2025 in Date Slicer 1
January 2025 in Date Slicer 2

Then, in my matrix, I want the column headers (measure names) to dynamically show the selected dates — i.e. the headers should display:

| Category | Oct-25 | Jan-25 |
| A | 123 | 456 |
| B | 789 | 321 |

Basically, I want my measure headers to change dynamically based on the selected dates from both slicers.

Can anyone please suggest how to achieve this?

@Mahendra_k , Power BI currently does not support dynamic column headers in matrix visuals out of the box — especially for measure names in the Values section. The column headers for measures are static and tied to the measure names, so they won't automatically reflect slicer selections like dates.
