Need to add multiple measures to Matrix Rows

Im doing a Power BI report for assistance and tardiness where I show in a matrix visual per area, user (rows) and dates (columns) the registered time in and time out (both are measures) as shown in table 1.

 12 - Monday 13 - Tuesday 14 - Wednesday 15 - Thursday 
  Time In Time Out Time In Time Out Time In Time Out Time In Time Out

Table 1. Current Matrix Visual I am showing in the report.
I have another Matrix visual where I show per user, some additional information, using measures as well, showing the amount of days they are late (time in > 9:10), the average time in, etc. (table 2).

Table 2. Second Matrix Visual, showing more measures per User.
I also use data segmentation so the information shown can be seen per week.
I would like to join both matrix visual in one so all the information can be shown in one visual, resulting in a matrix visual like Table 3.

Table 3. Resulting table.
Power BI does not allow to add these measures as totals without also adding a record for each column, I tried hidding them but every time the segmentation (filters) change, the values appear again so it is not a solution. 

My data is in the following format (table 4):

IdNo.Time
11231231223/09/2024 08:17

Table 4. FactAssitance data format.

I also use a user dimension where names and areas are stored and a calendar dimension.

Thank you in advance.

    Hi BIUser0101 

     

    Are you trying to merge two matrices while hiding Valid Registrations and Is Late (>09:10:00) and showing only their totals? If I understand correctly, please refer to the following test:

     

    Since I don't have the data from your calendar table, I added a date column to the data to act as a column for the matrix, with the No. column acting as a filter in the test.

     

    Place the cursor at the junction of the corresponding column and drag it to the left until it is hidden.

    And turn off Text wrap for column headers.

     

    Output:

      Hi Yulia,
      >Are you trying to merge two matrices while hiding Valid Registrations and Is Late (>09:10:00) and showing only their totals?
      Yes that is what I'm trying to do but as I mentioned:

      >I tried hidding them but every time the segmentation (filters) change, the values appear again

      If there is a way to keep only those columns hidden even when I change my filters (like week, months, dates in general) that would solve my problem.

      Nonetheless, I appreciate your help.

        Hi BIUser0101 

         

        Based on my test, I'm afraid that Power BI cannot implement this requirement directly. But I think your idea makes sense and I find an idea that has a similar need to yours, you can vote for it to help make it happen as soon as possible. https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=31d0f24a-0194-ee11-a81c-000d3a00bef9 

         

        Hopefully this will be possible in a future release.

         

        If you can consider using the method mentioned in my previous reply, and you want the column to no longer appear when you change the filter, you need to hide the column once for each filter option. For example, in my test, I added the date 9/24/2024. When I filtered the data for 9/23/2024, I hid "Is Late". When I selected 9/24/2024, I needed to hide "Is Late" again. After that, if you select the 9/24/2024 option again, the "Is Late" column will no longer appear.
