Inline Drillthrough??

[lrarbin]

Hello All,
Does anyone know if it's possible have a table (or matrix) in Power BI that expands a line item into drilldown of sub items. A sort of in-line drill down. I think this was possible with SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services), and might be possible in Power BI Paginated Reports, but I don't think its possible in 'normal' Power BI (Power BI Desktop).

Something like this (this is just a grid in Excel):

Thanks
Laurence

Hi @lrarbin ,

Try to disabled option "Stepped layout" in Row headers.

Then create measure:

No of Items = 
IF(
    ISFILTERED('Table'[Material]),
    SUM('Table'[Cost]),
    COUNT('Table'[Cost])
)

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

@amitchandak , thanks for reply. Yes, I know that drilldown / drillthough is available. But I'm looking to make the data available 'inline' in a table or matrix. KInd of like how grouping works but with different field data within the 'group.

Thanks, I think this was the best solution, mainly removing the stepped layout.
