Matrix visual with groupings and totals

Hello,

I want to create a matrix (or table) visual with groupings and totals in PowerBI Pro. I tried many things with the standard matrix visual in PowerBI, but it seems like it's not possible to create what I want. I think it's possible in SSRS or with paginated reports, but my client does not want to use SSRS. 

I created a simplified version of what I want to achieve in Excel:

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hi, @ToyotaYaris 

According to your picture, I think the only way to get the result in Power BI is to create a Matrix for each group of ID/name, which is very complex and takes a lot of time to achieve. You can go to the Excel community to ask for methods in Excel. Here’s a case that requires a similar result as yours:

There is no workaround to achieve something that is comparable with what I want? Just the groupings based on customers (name/id) would help a lot!

Unfortunatley paginated reports are only available with a premiun license, my client only has pro licenses. Is there any other way to achieve something similair?
