Dynamics coloumn selection from slicer

Dear all,

I'm facing a new challenge within powerbi desktop.

 

I need to create  for my end-users a dynamic table (or matrix table) in wich the user can select what are the coloumn the report has to display.

 

I try to explain better. I have this table as my dataset.

 

Dimension 1 (CdC) - [Text with CdC description]

Dimension 2 (Product) - [Text with Product description]

Dimension 3 (Plant) - [Text with Plant description]

Amount [number].

 

I want to create a sort of Pivot table starting from those data but the user, with a slicer, should be able to choose what dimension must be in the first coloumn, in the second one, and so on...

 

I was trying with DAX coloumn create a fake "Dimension 1" coloumn that should select the value starting from a Slicer but I realized that DAX coloumn are not "live" with the slicer.

 

Any suggestion?

 

Thanks all
