Hi there,
I am looking for a way to summarize text values in a column. I am getting data from MS Project Server that looks like this:
[Resources] 1-* [Assignments] *-1 [Tasks]
So multiple resources can be assigned to one task.
In my report on the other end, I want to have a table that's like this:
Task1 | Bill, Joe | ...
Task2 | Rose | ...
In the moment I get this:
Task1 | Bill | ...
Task1 | Joe | ...
Task2 | Rose | ...
How can I group the results by task? I tried to create a custom column but couldn't find a solution with DAX etc. so far...
Thank you in advance for any help!!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Add a measure like this
m = CONCATENATEX(table, Table[emp], ",")
Drop task and this new measure in a table visual and you will get the expected result.
