Open Bid - Power BI Visual for Financial reporting - How much would you charge?
Is anyone interested in bidding on developing the functionality of the Hiearchy slicer to include values for exclusive use in Financial reporting within Power BI?
Basically the Hiearchy Slicer is a perfect solution to grouping accounts and being able to expand and collapse them.
Here is rough sample of the Hiearchy Slicer allowing Data Values:
There is a field in the slicer called Values. By simply dropping a value field into the Slicer we should be able to:
1. Expand / Collapse as needed.
2. Sub totals and Grand Totals will be displayed for the groupings
3. Keep this as a Slicer, becouse the ability to expand and collapse data, but then select a checkbox brings in a whole bunch of usefull functionality for this new slicer. We can expand, collapse, and also filter based on this slicer.
4. Take note of the screen shot above. Now imagine clicking the triangle to the left and expanding all the way dow to the account level. L:et the numbers group like a matrix.
Can Anyone assist with this project and How much would you charge?

Not even Close,
I work with Financial users all day long. That new Visual is more confusing and not usable for the Executive staff or any of the Financial report users. I got laughed right out of the meeting room when I showcased the new Microsoft Visual.
The Hiearchy Slicer works exactly perfect, except it does not allow values to be added to it. If Someone could get Values added to it and formating correctly with the ability to have a link column , it would solve 100% of all the financial reporting needs.
Every one of the executives and report users agreed that the Hiearchy Slicer is exactly perfect and all it needs is to allow values be added so that it would be a financial friendly visual in which all users could immediatly understand and use.
After re-reading your original post and carefully looking at the screenshots you provided, I fail to see how the new matrix visual doesn't satisfy your need. Can you please elaborate on why it doesn't work for your use case?
