Values in Matrix shown based on different row context
Hello everyone,
I have one issue and would really appreciate any help or idea.
I create a Matrix, based on a (simplified) dataset (can be seen in the picture below). I have 2 columns A, and B and a Value column.
Is it possible if with only 1 column in the same Matrix - (called Column in the picture), we can create 2 measures, one showing the sum of value based on the Row context of Column A (I called this measure: Column A row context), and another showing the sum of values based on the Row context of Column B (Column B row context). The "Desired Matrix" is what I want to achieve (I did it by Excel).
I hope it would be easier to understand my question with the below picture and my example pbix file.
Thanks in advance!
Create a dimension table
Dim = distinct(table[A]) Or Dim = distinct(union(all(table[A]),all(table[B])))Join it both columns A and B, One join will be active. Another one will be inactive. use userelation to activate the join in the formula for column B
How to use userelation refer :https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/HR-Analytics-Active-Employee-Hire-and-Termination-trend/ba-p/882970
Check for terminations

Create a dimension table with distinct values from the Column A and Column B then make two inactive relationships between this new table and the two columns A and B then add the following two measures:
Contex A = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]); USERELATIONSHIP('Table'[Column A];'Row Context'[Column Context])) Contex B = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]); USERELATIONSHIP('Table'[Column B];'Row Context'[Column Context]))Add the column from the new table as your main context on your table and filter out all the blanks.
