Matrix Design

Hello
I would like to design a Matrix.
Is it possible to have 2 columns with the same data. The data is from Direct Query.

- One with higher than version 2.x

- One with less than version 1.9
Do I have to do a Measure or can it be done easier?
Once it is done I would also like to drill down to see who has one of the 2 versions.
Can I insert the drill down and add the User into the "Drill through" field
Regards

Heinrich

Hi @Heinrich ,

 

Can you elaborate a little bit more on the:

 

- One with higher than version 2.x

- One with less than version 1.9

 

Does this information already exists on your model or you only have a single column?


Regards

Miguel Félix

Hello Miguel

I have one single column.

In this column "Versions" you have different Versions.

This column (String) has following data

Version 1.1

Version 1.2

Version 1.3

Version 2.1

Version 2.2

Version 2.3

Version 2.4

I could limit it to 

- 1 Measure to search only 1.2

- 1 Measure to search only 2.3

Every Data is on Direct Query

Thank you for your help

In this case being in Direct Query, the best option is to create the measures since you have the values on a specifc column.

The script is

CALCULATE(
    COUNTA('CQD'[Second User Agent Category]),
    'CQD'[Second User Agent Category] IN { "Microsoft Teams Mac" }
)

Hi @Heinrich ,


Based on the error message, Please check if the problem occurs with some data type conversions.

In some cases, clearing permissions in the data source settings and re-entering the credentials can solve the issue.

Hello Gao
Thank you very much for your answer
Unfortunately it is in Direct Query.


Everything works as Table but Matrix gives me more flexibility and

better big picture over a Table.
