Hi,
I am new to Power BI, I need your help.
My issue is this i want to create Ad hoc report in Power BI. Ad hoc report means i have a list of Dimensions and Measures and i want output like When i select A dimension and Measure it will show in the table.
Like this screenshot attached, Here i was selected theCountry and the NETSALES, so it is showing in a table, If I select anyother dimension or KPI it will also show in table.
Please help.
Thanks in Advance
@srashtilagozon , Measure one you can use measure slicer. But for dimension, it is a bit tricky. Either you have to create bookmarks or convert columns to rows.

Youtube Video is OK, but if we unselect all the columns then it was showing all columns, but i want like if we unselect then table will be invisible on canvas, but when we select any column table will be visible with the selected column.
And please let me know what can we do for the dimensions also.
@srashtilagozon check this blog post to achieve the functionality.
