Pivot Measures in Powerbi

[aaron797]

Hi,

I have the below "measures" in powerBI that are calculated post data load.

Engaged	Disengaged	ActivelyDisengaged
36	7	1

I would like to pivot them into the below columns, is anyone able to provide some tips on how i would approach this?

Engagement	CountEngagement
Engaged	36
Disengaged	7
Actively Disengaged	1

The end goal is to take the above columns into a pie chart.

Thank you!

Try this

union(
SUMMARIZE(table, table[any Group by col], "Engagement","Engaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[Engaged])),
SUMMARIZE(table, table[any Group by col], "Engagement","Disengaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[Disengaged])),
SUMMARIZE(table, table[any Group by col], "Engagement","ActivelyDisengaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[ActivelyDisengaged]))
)

or

union(
SUMMARIZE(table, "Engagement","Engaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[Engaged])),
SUMMARIZE(table, "Engagement","Disengaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[Disengaged])),
SUMMARIZE(table, "Engagement","ActivelyDisengaged","CountEngagement" , sum(table[ActivelyDisengaged]))
)

Hi, Don't think i can use the query editor to transform as these are measures.

A bit time-consuming way but the union and summarize can do

Summary = UNION(
SUMMARIZE('Table1','Table1'[Customer],'Table1'[created_date],'Table1'[DA Status],"Sales",sum('Table1'[Sales]),"Invoices",count('Table1'[ID]),"Time",DIVIDE(SUM('Table1'[Ship Time]),1),"Stage"," Ship","Gross",sum('Table1'[inv_amount]),"Net",Sum('Table1'[Net Calc Amount]))
,SUMMARIZE('Table2','Table2'[Customer],'Table1'[created_date],'Table2'[AA Status],"Sales",sum('Table2'[Sales]),"Invoices",count('Table2'[ID]),"Time",DIVIDE(SUM('Table1'[Order Time]),1),"Stage","Order","Gross",sum('Table1'[inv_amount]),"Net",Sum('Table1'[Net Calc Amount]))
)

Here "Stage","Order" and "Stage","Ship" are static columns created. You will union for each measure and the use static column to put the name of the measure.

All groups by will come without the name, followed by grouped data with name , formula

and static name, disp name

Hi Amit,

Thank you for the reply, I am having issues breaking down the below code, it is a bit beyond me, for instance DA Status/AA Status, Net Cal Amount etc. 

it would be greatly appreciated if you prepare the union statement with my columns above, or provide some further resources / explanation. 

Thank you very much!!

Hi @aaron797 ,

We can create a Calculated table to store the name of enagement, then we can create a measure to calculate the result of each measure:

Calculated Table:

Engagement = DATATABLE("Engagement",STRING,{{"Engaged"},{"Disengaged"},{"Actively Disengaged"}})

Measures:

CountEngagement = SWITCH(SELECTEDVALUE(Engagement[Engagement]),"Engaged",[Engaged],"Disengaged",[Disengaged],"Actively Disengaged",[ActivelyDisengaged])

Best regards,

[aaron797]

This worked perfectly, thank you! very simple approach.
