put data into a table format

I need some help. In power bi you cant draw a table but can use visualisation. The team im working with want to see the data a certain way (like the excel design below) but none of the visualisations help. Ive sort of got something with multicard but still not showing how i want the data unless i have to design using shapes and text boxes? 

any help is appreciated

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]).
