Independent Column Values for Pivot Table

Hi All,

 

I have an excel file that has 108 code columns like A6A** and A6K**.  I would like to count rows for every single values in excel. However, when I do it with Power BI Pivot Table, it automatically includes some column results to other column.  Like below; A6A** column results are under A6K** columns. 

 

 

Is there any way to do it for independent family results like below?I want to show each column value consecutively for each 108 columns.

    Ok. Then... In Power Query M:

    let
        Źródło = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("Xc6xCoYwDATgd+nsYlrdU3pm+KekhQzF938NSxX5cQg33MeR3gNc2zyuTjGtYQm8/5hn8shz6UHh5jCyWmQYelC+UcaNxBQmQFO0FLf1o/JUUqoMIJEobjgQ04eVZ+zw0bqaOuhFf2+dFw==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Long VIN" = _t, A6K = _t, A6A = _t]),
        #"Unpivot Other Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(Źródło, {"Long VIN"}, "Family", "Value")
    in
        #"Unpivot Other Columns"

     

    Create New Measure:

    Count of VIN = DISTINCTCOUNT('Sample'[Long VIN])

    Can you post sample data? I think the issue here is that have 2 columns in your matrix: columnA with value A6KAH and a columnB with value A6AAA. Then using a count of Long VIN you are receiving this combination in matrix. 🙂

    The sample data like below. Correct, one long VIN value has 108 code families like A6K and A6A. 

     

    Long VIN A6K A6A
    EWQTEWQTEASW2341 A6KAA A6AAA
    QEWRWER2RSDG3412 A6KAB A6ABE
    QGRQERGEETQET4351 A6KAB A6ABB
    GDSGTQEG32235EFE34 A6KAB A6ABD
    QGFWEFEWQRQWE234 A6KAA A6AAA

      So based on this sample data that you have here:

      Long VINA6KA6A
      EWQTEWQTEASW2341A6KAAA6AAA
      QEWRWER2RSDG3412A6KABA6ABE
      QGRQERGEETQET4351
      A6KABA6ABB
      GDSGTQEG32235EFE34
      A6KABA6ABD
      QGFWEFEWQRQWE234
      A6KAAA6AAA

       

      What do you want to count? Based on this 5 rows?

        I want to count specific values for family columns. For example, when I want to get the counts for   A6KAB from A6K column and A6AAA from A6A column, the table should be like below.  I don't want to get results only for both A6KAB and A6AAA values. I would like to count both values seperately.
