use two columns at the same time

Hi experts,

 

I am trying to display this:

delete.jpg

 

 

But, like:

delete2.JPG

 

 

So far, I :

 

Created a matrix with:

 

-Rows: MemberID

-Columns: Metric Name, Completed Date

-Value: Units Passed

 

 

My problem now is that:

 

For Columns: Metric Name, Completed Date

 

 I get either by month or by metric name, and I need both at the same time as my screenshot above...

I was hoping to see some sort of 'combine' option here but there isn't.

You should be able to complete this by using the drill down by column and moving to the next complete step in the heirarchy.

Even though I set to show all months:

In the results for example, I see only ‘march’ and ‘april’, why is that?

HI @maca128,

 

When you use matrix visual, it will auto hide whole row/column which only contains blank value or not real existed in table.

 

For this scenario, it is impossible to expand these non existing records to matrix.

You need to create a calculate table with the original records and expand the blank records, then you can use the new table to create the matrix visuals as expected.
