Matrix with extra forumulas - how do you do this ??

Hi All, 

I hope you have a solution for this.

I have a financial transaction table and want to make a matrix like the excel example below:

 

Excel example 

But what is the way to add some extra formules in this matrix, like :

Margin ( = Net turnover + Purchase )

- Total Costs - Operation Result and EBITDA ?

Is there a way to view this like the excel example?

 

This is the content of the table I imported

 

Regards, Bart

        To build the structure you need a table with all the rows. If that is not possible at the source, you can create the structure in Excel and import it or paste it into a table using "Enter data"(including a sorting order column) or  you can create a new table by using the equivalent of the following as code for a new table option in the ribbon:

        all rows = 

        VAR _ExtraRows = {"NewRow1", "NewRow2", "NewRow3", "NewRow4"}
        RETURN

        UNION( DISTINCT('YourCurrent'[rows]), _ExtraRows)

         

        In the new table you will then need to establish the row order using a SWITCH function in a new calculated column. . You can then sort the row column using the "Sort column by" in the ribbon and selecting the order column. 

        If you are still stuck, please share a sample PBIX file
