Subheaders from two tables in PowerBI Matrix Table
- Anonymous2 years ago
Hi BIUser1998 ,
I’d like to acknowledge the valuable input provided by the amitchandak . His initial ideas were instrumental in guiding my approach. However, I noticed that further details were needed to fully understand the issue. In my investigation, I took the following steps:
I create two tables as you mentioned.
Then I go to the Power Query and use the Appended Queries.
Then I create two measures named A and B.
A = MAXX(FILTER('T1','T1'[Class]="A"),'T1'[Value])B = MAXX(FILTER('T1','T1'[Class]="B"),'T1'[Value])Finally I use the matrix visual and get what you want.
Best Regards
Yilong Zhou

Hi Anonymous, this worked like a charm. I have an additional doubt though. Since there are two tables, there are some rows common and some distinct rows, is there any way I can show in which all tables which country is available? Something like shown in the screenshot attached?
BIUser1998 , Option 1 append two tables in Power query
Append Tables (Power Query)

Or create common dimensions like Category , class and fiscal year and join with both tables and use them for analysis
Example dim
Category = distinct(union(distinct(Table1[Category]),distinct(Table2[Category])))
