How to create dummy columns in numeric order based on a date difference
Hi All,
I have created a report using the matrix visual. The column is a date difference in month. 1, 2, 3.... Row is a date value.
There are some months "missing" purely due to what the data is, however it need to show those months just with a zero value.
So if its month 1 2 3 7 - I need to fill in 4 5 6, etc. Is there anyway of doing that without adding dummy data in the actual data.
Thank you all in advance.

Hi All,
I am working through the solution provider.. not sure if I am on the right track
I created a new table with the number of months required.
I joined this to my existing table
and this is what I get. Almost as an inner join?
Also when I join this to my data, which field do I use to the matrix to show the months 1 - 47 in this case.
THank you all again 😊

Create a new table and add relationship;
Add this new column to matrix.
Then change properties of measure in visualisation "Show Item with no data" or change your measures to display 0 instedof BLANK()

@Jerush , Create a table with values , using generateseries
month= generateseries(1,12,1)
Join this with the column in your table.
Create a measure with +0 and use
count(Table[column]) +0
