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.

@Anonymous
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]).
