How to create this table(Transpose)

Expectation: all the table measures will be in row-wise below the metrics column, so how we can do this the data source is in the SSMS server
L4 is Last four week, L13,L26,L52 Should come as each column

Reality: what we can actually do in power BI is this below

Hi @GowthamK66 


Please try this:

Here I have the sample data:

vzhengdxumsft_2-1726471557184.png

You can create a matrix and put the category column on the Columns box:

And open the Switch values in row groups rather that columns:

vzhengdxumsft_1-1728291793712.png

The result is as follow:

vzhengdxumsft_3-1728291909815.png

 

And here's another workaround:

Add a new table:

 

 

Table 2 = {"Measure1","Measure2","Measure3"}

 

 

vzhengdxumsft_3-1726471581824.png

Then add a new measure:

 

 

Measure = 
VAR _Values = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Value])
RETURN 
SWITCH(
    _Values,
    "Measure1",[Measure1],
    "Measure2",[Measure2],
    "Measure3",[Measure3]
)

 

 

Finally, create a matrix with these fields:

The result is as follow:

The thing is all the measures should be placed in the Row level but in Power BI we can't do that, we can place the measure only in Values not in Rows😥

Hi @GowthamK66 

 

Please try this:

Click the Transform data in the Hoem pane to use the PowerQuery:

vzhengdxumsft_0-1726454777057.png

Then in the Transform Pane, you can use the Transpose feature:

vzhengdxumsft_1-1726454829156.png

Here I create a set of sample:

vzhengdxumsft_2-1726454876478.png

Hold down the Ctrl key and select all the columns and click the Transpose, then click the Use First Row as Headers in the Home pane, the result is as follow:
