    Hi bigsol84 ,

     

    Consider creating a table like this without joins and using it as a matrix of rows.

    The [Index] column here is used to assist the [Energy Voucher Calderdale] sorting.

    Then create a measure:

    Measure = 
SWITCH(
    SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Energy Voucher Calderdale]),
    "Voucher Issued",<measure1>,
    "Additional GAS Eligible Vouchers Issued",<measure2>,
    "Additional Electric Eligible Vouchers Issued",<measure3>,
    "Additional Vouchers Issued",<measure4>,
    "Expired Vochers",<measure4>,
    "Total Vouchers Issued (Issued - Expired)",<measure6>,
    "Value of Vouchers Cashed",<measure7>,
    "Direct Payment Gas",<measure8>,
    "Direct Payment Electric",<measure9>,
    "Make Direct Payment",<measure10>,
    "Value of Direct Payments",<measure11>,
    "Total Spend",<measure12>,
    "Households Supported",<measure13>,
    "Total number of Adults supported",<measure14>,
    "Total number of Children Impacted",<measure15>
)

    Replace <measure*> with your measure.

    Thanks for the advice. How did you make that table? if the fields already have data do i need to create measures for them?

     

    Thanks

      Hi bigsol84 ,

       

      I created the new table by entering data, combined with adding index columns.

      Originally a field, you might consider going to the metric system to replace it.

      For example, 'Finance referral Date' [Vouchers Issued] can be replaced with the measure SUM('Finance referral Date'[Vouchers Issued]).
