Hi All!
I have some columns, which show minutes based on calculation time minus time (end time - start time).
I want to create matrix table showing total minutes during the hours by day:
Is there any way to have dates as columns and hours as rows? To get such result:
Please advice.
Thank you,
G.

@A_a_a Well, perhaps you could move the calculations to PQ and then unpivot. Otherwise, you could potentially use this: DAX Unpivot - Microsoft Power BI Community. Last thought, create a disconnected table that just lists your times like:
Time
0:00
1:00
2:00
Use this for your rows. Create a measure like this:
Measure =
VAR __Time = MAX('DisconnectedTable'[Time])
VAR __Result =
SWITCH(__Time,
"0:00", SUM('Table'[0:00]),
"1:00", SUM('Table'[1:00]),
"2:00", SUM('Table'[2:00]),
...
)
first I have created this data and you would need to create a calculated table or use DAX measures to generate the desired result.
Hope you get this helpful.
@A_a_a In Power Query Editor, try unpivoting your time columns.
Thank you for your message.
I don't think I can unpivot them because they are not in power query editor, the columns are added in Data View.
What do you think?
Thanks,
G.
