Table Matrix

Hi All,

 

Anyone noticed Table Matrix acting funny.

For eg: Look at the two table matrixes attached with the same variables and info. Now, surprisingly, both charts have transaction type in the Column section and items like invoice amount and all in the Values area.

 

So, how am I getting two diff types of chart? Anyone wants to help. The goal is to get the below chart, in all tries and not flukes.

Hi,

Are you perhaps building these matrixes by clicking e.g. columns and measures and not dragging and dropping them? If that is the case I would pay attention to the order you click these columns. If you click elements in different order the end result varies.

I hope this post helps to solve your issue and if it does consider accepting it as a solution and giving the post a thumbs up!
