Hello, all!
In PBI I have the following Tables:
Table1
Product number | Net weight | Weight unit |
A | 15 | G |
B | 20 | KG |
Table2
Product number | Packaging unit | Length | Width | Height | Dimension unit |
A | Piece | 15 | 20 | 15 | mm |
A | Box | - | - | - | - |
A | Pallet | 5 | 25 | 20 | cm |
B | Piece | 20 | 54 | 21 | mm |
B | Box | 52 | 41 | 20 | cm |
B | Pallet | - | - | - | - |
First question: is there a way to include the dimension unit into Lenght, Width and Height cells? So that Table2 would look like:
Product number | Packaging unit | Length | Width | Height |
A | Piece | 15 mm | 20 mm | 15 mm |
A | Box | - | - | - |
A | Pallet | 5 cm | 25 cm | 20 cm |
B | Piece | 20 mm | 54 mm | 21 mm |
B | Box | 52 cm | 41 cm | 20 cm |
B | Pallet | - | - | - |
Second question: I want to create a visual that would look like this:
Product Number | Net weight | Piece | Box | Pallet | ||||||
Length | Width | Height | Length | Width | Height | Length | Width | Height | ||
A | 15 G | 15 mm | 20 mm | 15 mm | - | - | - | 5 cm | 25 cm | 20 cm |
B | 20 KG | 20 mm | 54 mm | 21 mm | 52 cm | 41 cm | 20 cm | - | - | -
|
After extensive research here, I was able to create a matrix showing the Units of measure but I don't know how to display the Net weight. If I add the net weight to the Values, it displays the Net weight for all units of measure, even though the net weight refers to the Piece unit of measure.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Solved! Go to Solution.
For the first problem, if you want to join two fields, you can try the following:
Create columns,
Column _length = [Length ] & " " & [Dimension unit]
Column _width = [Width] & " " & [Dimension unit]
Column _height = [Height] & " " & [Dimension unit]
Or create measures,
_length = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Length ]) & " " & SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Dimension unit])
_width = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Width]) & " " & SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Dimension unit])
_height = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Height]) & " " & SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[Dimension unit])
For the second question, as you said, you can create a matrix.
Note, however. table 1 is a table with a hierarchical structure. you may not be able to get a parallel structure using a matrix. It should look like this:
Next, you can put the Packaging unit field of table 2 into "Columns" and the measures you just created into "Values".
Here is the result.
