Matrix shouldn't show +/- values if it category doesn't have subcategory values

Hi,

 

I have two tables

 

Table A

IDCategory
1A
2B
3C

 

Table B

IDSub Category
1aa
1bb
1cc
2dd

 

We have Category for ID 3 but do not have sub category for ID 3. In this case I do not want to see +/- for Category C. How can I achieve that.

 

Please let me know if there is a way to do this.

If I uncheck "Show items with no data" it is completely removing the category values.

Thank you!

I am creating Matrix using above two tables category and subcategory

Hi @ashuaswinireddy , it is not possible to display +/- conditionally. When you have defined a hierarchical matrix and want the design to be with +/-, the sign will appear
Independent of the values in the subgroup
.
