Put subtotal column first matrix

Hi, Syndicate_Admin 

According to your description, you want to put the sub_total as first.

Total in the default Matrix is automatically generated and currently has no settings to place in the first column.

For your need , you can create a dimension column table in Power Query .

Here are the steps you can refer to :
(1)This is my test data:

We can create a "Blank Query" in Power Query and enter this M code to create a dimension column table:

let
    Source = {"Total"} &List.Distinct(Table[Column]),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Source, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
    #"Added Index" = Table.AddIndexColumn(#"Converted to Table", "Index", 1, 1, Int64.Type)
in
    #"Added Index"

(2)Then we can load the data to Power BI Desktop , then we can create a measure :

Measure = var _cur_column =  MAX('Table 2'[Column1])
return
IF( _cur_column = "Total" , CALCULATE( SUM('Table'[Value]) ) ,
CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]) , 'Table'[Column]  =_cur_column) )

(3)Then we can put the fields we need on the visual and we can sort the 'Table 2 '[Column1] by the 'Table 2'[Index] column and now we can meet your need:

 

 

Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
