Hi @Rajiv1237,

 

You can refer to below steps to achieve your requirement.

 

1. Output needed in PowerBI:

Drag month to Rows filed, year to Columns fields, year and qty to Values fields.

 

2. Output Achieved in PowerBI:

Add a calculate to column to merge month and year.

 

Sample:

Date=CONCATENATE([Month]&".",[Year])

 

Use above calculate column as the Rows of the matrix, year to Columns field, QTY and measure to columns field.

Issue was with my PowerBI solution:

 

I have DateKey identity column and I have sorted my Month column with that DateKey.

 

After removing Month column sorting with DateKey column I got the desired output.

 

And for sorting Month column instead of identity column I used

For Month column value January DateKey Column Value =  1

 

Update Query:

Update [dbo].[YearQty]
SET DateKey = CASE
 WHEN [Month] = 'January' THEN 1
 WHEN [Month] = 'February' THEN 2
 WHEN [Month] = 'March' THEN 3
 WHEN [Month] = 'April' THEN 4
 WHEN [Month] = 'May' THEN 5
 WHEN [Month] = 'June' THEN 6
 WHEN [Month] = 'July' THEN 7
 WHEN [Month] = 'August' THEN 8
 WHEN [Month] = 'September' THEN 9
 WHEN [Month] = 'October' THEN 10
 WHEN [Month] = 'November' THEN 11
 WHEN [Month] = 'December' THEN 12
