Hi @enswitzer

The first thing you should do is unpivot Phase data:

Select 3 columns and click Unpivot Columns in the Transform tab. Then change the name of column Attribute to Phase.

Next step is to create matrix with slicer. Add new slicer and put in the Field Project Title.

Add Matrix visual and to the Column field add Phase column and to the Value add Value column (change name to "Date).
