Matching a card with a measure in to a column in a matrix

Hi All

Hope someone can help

I have a matrix table which has product names on rows and ingredients in columns.

The purpose of this is to show which products have which ingredients

 

Above each column of the table I have a card with a measure in to sum how many products contain the ingredient (from the column its above) and the ingredient in column 1. This works great when the user doesnt use the slicers on the page. However when the Ingredient slicers are used, the columns in the table are moved around accordingly, making it so the cards no longer represent the columns in the matrix

 

Is there a way to link a measure to which columns / Ingredients are selected so the report becomes more dynamic?

 

Thanks for your help

Hi @Matt22365,

 

It would be great to get some sample data.

 

Thanks

Hi @Shaurya 

Picture below shows the report how I have it.

The numbers above the table are cards with measures to determine the total number of flavours which have Ingredient 1 and one of the other ingredients

What I would like to do next is change the cards so that if the user deselected ingredients 4 and 5 in the slicer and added ingredients 6 & 7, the cards would update to reflect the new columns

 

Current measures:

Ingredients 1 & 2 =
VAR mat1 =
CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( 'Table1'[Flavour] ), 'Table1'[Ingredient] = "Ingredient 1" )
VAR mat2 =
CALCULATETABLE ( VALUES ( 'Table1'[Flavour] ), 'Table1'[Ingredient] = "Ingredient 2" )
RETURN
COUNTROWS ( INTERSECT ( mat1, mat2 ) )+0
 
Data is simple
ProductFlavourIngredients
Product 1Flavour 1Ingredient 1
Product 1Flavour 1Ingredient 2
Product 2Flavour 1

Ingredient 1

Product 2Flavour 1Ingredient 3

 

Thanks for your help
