How do I create a summary for the following table?

I plan on creating a summary table of this:

 

Detailed Table

Into this..

 

Summary Table

The idea is that I will be able to drill up from the detailed table to see the summary table. Does anyone know how to create such a thing?

 

Thank you

Hi @HamidBee ,

Please try to use bookmarks.

Bookmarks save the current filters and slicers, cross-highlighted visuals, sort order, and so on. When others view your report, they can get back to that exact state by selecting your saved bookmark.

When you create a bookmark, the following elements are saved with the bookmark:

  • The current page
  • Filters
  • Slicers, including slicer type (for example, dropdown or list) and slicer state
  • Visual selection state (such as cross-highlight filters)
  • Sort order
  • Drill location
  • Visibility of an object (by using the Selection pane)
  • The focus or Spotlight mode of any visible object

Please refer to the following document for more information.

@HamidBee why do you want a new table when you can visualize the same with the matrix visual. Put the date on rows, Letter on the column, and count on values and that will do it.
