Group values above columns in Matrix visual

Hi all,

I have a simple question, hoping for a simple answer :)

 

I would like to make a matrix table containing two values displayed for a series of years. So I have a column Year, and two measures in the values (not displayed on rows), displayed for a large number of rows. The result looks like this:

However I want to have each value grouped and displayed separately over the years. Like this:

 

How can I achieve this? I am thinking of a workaround by making a new table with the two value names, putting this table as an extra column above the years and then creating a measure which displays the correct value depending on the column name.

Is there an easier way?

 

Many thanks in advance,

Michiel

    Hi MSchepers 

    I'm afraid there is no such feature for matix in Power BI.

     

    Best Regards
