Dear All,
i am working on a dashboard and currently i have 4 slicers , my intention is to combine all 4 slicer in one.
My data looks like below
Subjects | Rank1 | Rank2 | Rank3 | Rank4 |
English | John | Clara | Rey | Rey |
Maths | Peter | Roy | Noah | |
Science | Mark | Jezz | Jezz | Peyer |
Currently, my 4 slicers are Rank1,Rank2,Rank3,Rank4,, i am trying to combine these 4 slicers in 1 , named student name so when we select name of student, the whole dashboard is refreshed.
Please help me with it, Many thanks in advance
Your requirements are really unclear, so I don't know if this is what you are after. But I just unpivoted your example data and then created a matrix with subject on rows, rank on the columns and the name in the values
If I understand your requirement correctly the best approach is probably to unpivot the data so that you have a table with subject, rank and person.
eg.
Subjects | Rank | Person |
English | Rank1 | John |
English | Rank2 | Clara |
English | Rank3 | Rey |
English | Rank4 | Rey |
Maths | Rank1 | Peter |
Maths | Rank2 | Roy |
Maths | Rank3 | Noah |
Maths | Rank4 | |
Science | Rank1 | Mark |
Science | Rank2 | Jezz |
Science | Rank3 | Jezz |
Science | Rank4 | Peyer |
