Matrix/Table/Other??

Hi All, 

New to the group.  I'm looking for help on how I can recreate a table I have in excel in Power BI.  I've tried both the Matrix and Table visuals in Power BI, but I cant figure out how to format it to mee my needs.  What I'm looking to do is have a list of clients (rows) with specific metrics (columns) and be able to view them month over month. 

 

Here's an example of what I'm looking for: 

                      Jan-24                   Feb-24
ClientSLA% ABN%Yield %SLA% ABN%Yield %
Albuquerque, NM100%0%56%100%42%67%
Denver, CO30%41%64%25%52%70%

 

Does anyone know how this can be done?

 

The closest I've come, looks like this, by using the 'table' visual to get my list of clients and the metrics.....

ClientSLA% ABN%Yield %
Albuquerque, NM100%0%56%
Denver, CO30%41%64%

........But I still need the ability to add/group more months of data like the chart at the top. 

 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks,

Cheque

Hi @Cheque 

 

Please try to use the 'matrix' visual.

Here I create a set of sample:

Then add a matrix visual:

When you come from Excel you are used to wide tables with many columns. Power BI is different, it works best with narrow, long tables. There is a process step called "Unpivot" that will help you to transform the Excel data into usable format.
