multiple description columns on a matrix table

Dear,

 

I have an issue using multiple description columns to described one unique item on a matrix chart

on my table (on the left), item1 and description 1 have a one to one relationship 

 

When i  create a matrixtable with the 2 columns as row description , that create hierarchy relationship that i dont want

so either i need to remove column2 from my table ( right dowm) either i have to delete the column sum  (right up)

 

Is there a way to add a column in matrix table that is only for description and not in the hierarchy 

 

Thank you for your support

Thank you Dale for your reply.

I finally remove the "stepped" option in the row header format option

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Is the result below what you want?

Column1             Column2          Column3            Column4

item1                description1           01/18               100

                                                        02/18               200

                                                        03/18               100

item2               description2            01/18               200

                                                        ...                     ...

 

If so, I'm afraid it's hard to get it. What's the original data?

 

Best Regards,

Dale
