Dynamic hierachical x-Axis based on measure value

[fellin]

Hey all,

I want to have a x-axis in a column chart, which automatically drills down to the next level of a ragged hierchay which i slice via the hierachy slicer. Its possible to slice my data via the hierachy slicer and then manually drill down in the column chart to a certain level, but to make it as easy as possible for the user, I want this to be done automatically. 

I have Dimensions Department table which contains my ragged hierachy and a fact table which contains every action as rows. 

I've already tried these things:

1. Create bookmarks to visualize the different levels, but there is no possibilty to trigger an action by a measure or sth else.

2. Create a calculated column which checks if the selected Level,which i can get over a measure, is  the same level as the level of the Department minus 1, but this is not dynamically.

3. When I want to create a measure to check if the level of a certain Department minus 1 is the same as the level selected, but then i get problems, that a measure only exist in the value dimensions and not in collumns.

Is there a possible way to archieve a solution for this problem?

Thank you in advance!

Hi @fellin ,

Sorry that I can't find a good solution to achieve it. Please refer the method in the following links as a workaround:

There is one similar idea shared on Power BI Ideas, you can vote it up and add your comments there to improve Power BI on this feature.

@fellin , Not very clear. When you use columns from the hierarchy on the axis on the column bar visual, it should allow you the option to drill down by clicking on the bar.

Thank you for your answer. Yes I know that I can manually drill down by clicking on the bar, but what I want is that when the user selects a Department in hierachy slicer, the column chart should automatically display the departments which are one level down the hierachy under the selected department on the x-axis.
