How to stop summarizing specific fields in Matrix visual

Hi All,

 

I have the below matrix in the exact same format that I need.

Here, 'Labels' is a text field - both 'Labels' and 'Rate' I don't want to get summarized (as highlighted).

 

My fields pane -

This is a transactional date and there can be multiple occurances of the same product (hence the same Labels and rates) under each type - so using HASONEVALUE would not be of much help I think.

 

Please can someone help here?

Hi @RD2019 

Create measures

Measure_column3 =
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[column2] ),
    MAX ( 'Table'[column3] ),
    IF ( ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[column1] ), BLANK (), BLANK () )
)

Measure_column4 =
IF (
    ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[column2] ),
    SUM ( 'Table'[column4] ),
    IF ( ISINSCOPE ( 'Table'[column1] ), BLANK (), BLANK () )
)

Hi Maggie,

 

Thanks for this...I think this would work as well. However I have applied a work-around using HASONEVALUE only. As in my case, every product has the same label code and rate - I have just use an IF condition stating that if there is one value for any label or rate (although there can be multiple occurances) - just take the AVERAGE value, otherwise BLANK (ensuring the subtotal will be blank). Seems that it's working fine now.

Did you tried to move “First Labels” and “Rate” from Values to Rows? You are getting total for text fields because you have placed these text fields in value section of matrix. see below screenshot

I see repeating values, so assuming these are both columns, you can write measures as follows

 

=selectedvalue(table[column])

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.
