I have a requirement where I need to show a bunch of employees with a few dimensions/attributes, followed by a month-wise trend of a couple of metrics, followed by a few more dimensions.
In the example above, month Apr, May and Jun would be selected in a slicer. If other months say Jul and August were selected too then it should have shown those months too.
A matrix doesn't help as all dimensions have to be displayed before the measures itself so the measures end up outside the viewable area, plus a mtrix doesn't allow sorting on a say an individual month either.
Is there a trick available that can allow a dynamic set of columns to appear in a table based on a month selection and ideally without having to create individual measures for each month and a introduce a disconnected slicer etc?
