Hi there,
I am trying to make a map based on the info below. The end goal is when I choose any product (Cryogenic Equipment, Dental Care Equipment, Home Healthcare Equipment, etc.) from a slicer besides the map, the relevant companies will appear.
I was told to use unpivot table but still can't figure out how. Please give me some suggestions/ideas, much appreciate it!

Hi @Anonymous,
You can refer to following steps to create a map visual and slicer to achieve your retirement.
1. Enter to query editor and do 'unpivot columns' on all product columns, then save changes to dateview.
Full query:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("lZLLbsIwEEV/xco6jPxI/Fi2sEECsaBdURauE4rVxInyQOLv6yQURBtoWUSyZnHu3JPZbAJIUmNznYVo7gwEYYBHPjIyoxIkxjH1z4kkwIiUwTbcBJTUDZqmrmmrI1ob6192Z83D/EiAoJyIjk8IB8kGPpuhZZpYozO01K7daeOTrPu4CvgJJCNzykEIjnlfAAPmJ/4STXWV2OKga9NmukKz9GBNWt9sQG40YAwEUYwNDYRvEA0JeZdg31O0yMwNI2NmmIJIxaobTZQEpc77FhCiVdXsi7Izg+Z5mWnX1Oi5ra1L6/oR7RGoGEdxH0J9yEXLq7NN+unTqrKodGMLd4fzS0YEhMSSDzIkYMwG7gtalftmr7PcmvuOR7EMuBQXxZT3VL4+H8liMX3AcYRB8NPNEf/HSI978qXzUrvjYDkp/E2b+o/VrtakIJWU4ntPr2IAv7UYU34+6X9eVo8UwBTDUY+kflfvdrv9Ag==", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [#"Company Name" = _t, #"Cryogenic Equipment" = _t, #"Dental Care Equipment" = _t, #"Home Healthcare Equipment" = _t, #"Medical Equipment" = _t, #"Medical Testing, Analyzing, and Diagnostic Equipment" = _t, #"Therapeutic Devices" = _t, #"Veterinary Equipment" = _t, #"Medical Consumables" = _t, #"Medical Instruments" = _t, #"Optical Healthcare" = _t, Latitude = _t, Longitude = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Company Name", type text}, {"Cryogenic Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Dental Care Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Home Healthcare Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Medical Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Medical Testing, Analyzing, and Diagnostic Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Therapeutic Devices", Int64.Type}, {"Veterinary Equipment", Int64.Type}, {"Medical Consumables", Int64.Type}, {"Medical Instruments", Int64.Type}, {"Optical Healthcare", Int64.Type}, {"Latitude", type number}, {"Longitude", type number}}), #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Changed Type", {"Company Name", "Latitude", "Longitude"}, "Product", "Value") in #"Unpivoted Columns"
2. Create map visual and drag columns to correspond fields, then create a slicer based on unpivoted product column.

I need to create similar experience, except with calculated measures, hence they do not show up in query editor.
Data looks similar to the previous example, with the exception of my two calculated measures. The columns that need to be summarized or "unpivoted" are in bold below: (Revenue, Cost, 2-Labor, 3-Contract Labor...)
Period | CustomerName | Revenue | Cost | 2-Labor | 3-Contract Labor | ProdHours | GP | GM% |
201806 | CUSTOMER 1 | 2,704,333 | 2,045,075 | 1,124,330 | 225,394 | 45518 | CALCULATED MEASURE | CALCULATED MEASURE |
201808 | CUSTOMER 1 | 2,331,338 | 1,761,920 | 941,523 | 223,401 | 37580 | ||
