Dynamically create measure based table
- 6 years ago
Anonymous you can create a table using summarize function and then use UNION to append these tables together, something like dax expression given below
Table6 = UNION ( SUMMARIZE ( Table1, Table1[Id], "Name", "Table1", "Tasks", [Task Measure], "Travelers", [Traveles Measure] ), SUMMARIZE ( Table2, Table2[Id], "Name", "Table2", "Tasks", [Task Measure], "Travelers", [Traveles Measure] ), SUMMARIZE ( Table3, Table3[Id], "Name", "Table3", "Tasks", [Task Measure], "Travelers", [Traveles Measure] ) )I would ❤ Kudos if my solution helped. 👉 If you can spend time posting the question, you can also make efforts to give Kudos whoever helped to solve your problem.

Hi parry2k , i was trying to create it- but i may need a bit more help- please suggest:-
What should be referenced for Table1[Id], Table2[Id]......?
Also, these Task Measures and Traveler Measure would be unique like M1T1 for Table 1, Taks Measure and M2T5 for Table 5 Traveler Measure?

Anonymous table 1 , 2, 3 refers to the name of your tables. Id is just an example column. whatever common columns you want from these tables, you will list all there.

parry2k There are no common columns- i think this is what would be needed to group them right?
Unfortunately, these table do not relate to one another
I'll share more to be clear- please see if that helps
Table 1 Table 2 Table 3 Table 4 Table 5 Tasks 12371 315 1574 1529 836 Travelers 7514 200 1200 1200 800 In the table above- i have all 10 measures giving me values as is highlighted in orange.
But i don't know if Summarize would work since i don not have a common column- i just want these measures to appear as shown above in a table so that later i can use them in some visualization.
parry2k - Is there a way i can use any visual would would take in all these 10 measures? I want to show something like this
