How to have Changing Values in a Matrix Table

Hi,

Would appreciate if someone could jump in and make a test file for me because i cannot seem to find a solution anywhere regarding having a matrix table with a changing "values" section:

 

I have an excel sheet with 3 tabs:
1. Shows two stores and their monthly volume breakdown:

StorePeriodVol (L)
no.1Jan-24211
no.1Feb-24250
no.1Mar-24315
no.1Apr-24354
no.1Jun-24679
no.1Jul-24927
no.1Aug-24645
no.1Sep-24392
no.1Oct-24677
no.1Nov-24403
no.1Dec-2478
no.1Jan-25101
no.1Feb-25249
no.2Sep-24441
no.2Aug-24496
no.2Nov-24568
no.2Apr-24726
no.2Jan-25738
no.2Jul-24919
no.2Dec-24980
no.2May-241,053
no.2Feb-251,218
no.2Oct-241,298
no.2Jan-241,375
no.2Mar-241,582
no.2Feb-241,785
no.2Jun-242,365

2. The top 5 customers of those two stores and their overall volume contribution:

StoreCustomerVol (L)
no.1A1,098
no.1B589
no.1AL435
no.1M370
no.1C333
no.2AZ2,413
no.2D1,798
no.2BD1,521
no.2BF1,208
no.2E1,171

3. The monthly breakdown of those top 5 customer's contribution:

StoreCustomerPeriodVol (L)
no.1AJan-24211.32
no.1AApr-24190.9
no.1AFeb-24189.19

The initial store and overall volume view is fine:

But when i dropdown, the values dont change for top 5 customer overview / monthly breakdown:

jameslat_1-1742783353704.png

jameslat_2-1742783386189.png

I suspect i need to make a list of unique stores/customers and play around with the relationships but would really like someone to try it out for me as i cant seem to make heads or tails of it. Thanks

Hi,

I am not sure if I understood your question correctly, but I tried to create a sample pbix file like below.

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file.

Jihwan_Kim_0-1742794317976.png

 

 

top 5 sales: = 
SWITCH (
    TRUE (),
    ISCROSSFILTERED ( customer[Customer] ), SUM ( top_5_customers[Vol (L)] ),
    SUM ( sales[Vol (L)] )
)

Hi @jameslat 

Here are the steps that can resolve your issue.

steps
---- Create one dim_store table
----- Create "Year" column in Top5CustBreackdown table

Below is the relationship between the table


and create a measure for your result

result =
SWITCH(TRUE(),
    ISINSCOPE(top5custBreackdown[Customer]), SUM(top5custBreackdown[Vol (L)]),
    ISINSCOPE(top5custBreackdown[year]), SUM(top5custBreackdown[Vol (L)]),
    SUM(stores[Vol (L)])
)
