Matrix Table Headers Order
Hi, Im building a matrix table and I need it to look like the attached image.
I want to add a second header of values below the Year+Week header related to KPIs but I don't know how to build this type of Table.
this are the filelds used.. I tried to order them in different ways but... nothings seems to order them as I need.
Hey PatCreator ,
you can not achieve what you are looking for without using a little trick.
Create an unrelated table with two columns
Measure Name and Measure Order
Use the name of the measure/columns you are currently using in the Values bucket, and provide an index to order the values of the name column accordingly.
Then you can create a measure like so:
switch measure= var SelectedKPI = SELECTEDVALUE( 'unrelated table'[NameColumn] ) return SWITCH( SelectedKPI , "name1" , [Measure1] , "name2" , [Measure3] , "name3" , [Measure3] )Maybe it is necessary that you create measures or internal calculations if the columns you are using in the values bucket are numeric columns and not measures
Hopefully, this provides an idea of how you can tackle your challenge.
Regards,
Tom

Hey PatCreator ,
please use onedrive, googledrive, or dropbox for the upload, and do not zip the file.
