Subtotals on Matrix Report
To achieve your desired output as it looks on the picture you've posted follow these steps:
1) your Matrix should have Warehouse, Location and Items in the Rows and Qty, Cost and Value in the Values area
(this Cost column may have to be replaced by a Measure like the one below)
2) so select your Matrix and then click the Format button (Paint Brush)
3) open the Row Headers options => toggle Stepped Layout => Off => close the Row Headers options
3) open the Subtotals options => in Row subtotal label => replace the Total text => type Sub-Total
4) while still in the Subtotals options => scroll down to the bottom option => Per row level and turn it On
5) you will now see 3 addtional options to control the labels and subtotals for Warehouse, Location and Item
6) turn Off both Warehouse and Location (you only want Subtotals at the Item level so leave those on)
That should do it! 🙂
If you get a subtotal for the Cost which you don't want to show you can write a simple Measure to use instead.
Cost Measure = IF ( HASONEVALUE ( 'Table'[Item] ), MIN ( 'Table'[Cost] ), BLANK() )Hope this helps!
Hi onbi,
The reply of Sean made me realize I didn't understood the real issue. I have created a PBIX file that contains your desired matrix, you can download it here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ancq8HFZYL_aiIw_YXDrEgo8Q5u5lg?e=SHj3pp
The matrix in the PBIX file looks like this:
Let me know if you need any more help 🙂 And thanks Sean !
Kind regards

In the format section of your matrix, you can alter subtotal behavior. If you want some subtotals, but not at every level, change the setting in the Subtotals section, Per row level settings. If Per row level is set to off, you’ll have subtotals on or off for every row you have data in. Turn it off for every rowlevel and turn it on for Location level 🙂
Thank you djerro123. Yes, I've it the per row level switched on and the Location Sub-total is set to On as well, while for rest of the datapoints it's set to off. But, with that function, I'm seeing the current output and not the output, which I need.
However, when I switch on the Per Row Level for Item, it's then that I get the Sub-Total for each location.
I guess, it's just the way the data hierarchy and grouping done by Power BI Tool while generating a matrix report. 🙂 Any thoughts?
- Ok then please share your pbix because this is standard functionality and if my solution doesn't work the either we found a big or something else is influencing the result. You can share the link here in in PM if you don't want to share publicly.
