Specific Rows to Have Different Data Type

Hi! 

 

I was assigned to make a simple table in PBI showing the values provided by the department. Here is a sample layout of the raw data.

 

KEI/KPITypeSegmentJan-21Feb-21Mar-21Apr-21May-21Jun-21Jul-21Aug-21Sep-21Oct-21Nov-21Dec-21
KPI1BulkBuilders100%100%100%100%        
KPI1BulkDistributor100%100%100%100%        
KPI1BulkIndustrial100%100%100%100%        
KPI1BagBuilders100%99%100%99%        
KPI1BagDistributor100%99%99%97%        
KPI1BagIndustrial95%96%99%79%        
KPI2BulkBuilders99%99%100%99%        
KPI2BulkDistributor100%100%100%100%        
KPI2BulkIndustrial99%99%100%100%        
KPI2BagBuilders97%93%96%88%        
KPI2BagDistributor95%95%96%87%        
KPI2BagIndustrial95%99%95%97%        
KPI3BulkAll3893108116        
KPI3BulkAll9431        
KPI3BagAll785704784779        
KPI3BagAll7659449       

 

 

 

As you can see, the numbers are mostly presented in % except for the KPI3 in which it should be presented in absolute numbers.

 

In my inital process, I used 'unpivoted' and so all values are now in one column and I added a column to have a date column.

Here is my output. My question is that is there a way for these values (highlighted in yellow) to show as absolute while the rest are in percentages?

Hi, @newgirl 

Please check the below picture and the sample pbix file's link down below.

I tried to create a sample based on the explanation.

There are many ways to achieve this, but I suggest two ways like below.
