matrix

Hi all,

I was trying to trim the lenght of a column up to 20 characters and then I tried adding it to my matrix table but I was unable to do so.
Could anyone advise me why that specific field cannot be added to the matrix but the original field could?

Hi @criss317 ,

 

It is not possible to add a measure to the rows of a matrix. Try creating a calculated column instead of a measure.
