Hi, I'm interested in creating tables with multiple headers or a hierarchy of headers:
In the above example, "Region" is the main header and "North", "South", "East", "West" are sub-headers. I need to know how to creat this hiearchy in tables.

Is this currently possible in Power BI? Thank you for your help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
For this type of reports, piovt tables and flattened pivots are more suitable and preferable options as those visualizations are more rich as compared to matrix visualization in PowerBI.
You can create Report 1 and 2 both using matrix visualization.
For report 1, You need to drg both region and zones in Columnsas shown in the screenshot. For Report 2, follow the technique shown by smoupre.
