Pivot DAX Column or Help with Matrix

Hi,

 

I have a table of Leads that basically has this structure:

CategoryCompany
ACom1
ACom1
BCom2
ACom5
BCom1
CCom2
CCom4
ACom3
BCom1

My actual table is much more complicated and the Category column is a DAX calculated column.

I need to be able to make a visual, either a table or a matrix, that looks like this:

ABC
Com1Com2Com2
Com1Com1Com4
Com5Com1 
Com3  

So you can see each catgory along the top and a list of companies below that fall into each one. I tried setting up a matrix to do this, but couldn't get it to work. 

I also wanted to unpivot to make this work, but the DAX calculated column can't be manipulted in Power Query. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

    What I can come out is to create three calculate tables like pattern below and create three table visuals though the duplicate values will be removed.

    NewTableA = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Category] = "A"), "A", 'Table'[Company])   
    
    NewTableB = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Category] = "B"), "B", 'Table'[Company])     
    
    NewTableC = SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER('Table', 'Table'[Category] = "C"), "C", 'Table'[Company])

  • Anonymous in matrix visual, put the category on columns and company on values, and you will get the same output.

      hi parry2k 

       

      Thank you for the help!

       

      Unfortunately if you put a company name on values then you have to pick a summary, like First. I need them to show up as a list of companies under each category.
