Using matrix visual

I have a view with columns SQServerName, DatabaseName,LastBackupDate. I am using a matrix visual with drill down. I would like to see the backup date only when I drill down from SQLServer to the Database rows. How not to show  the BackupDate on the SQLServerName row.

Hi @lovepbi 

 

You can use this measure:

Measure = IF(ISINSCOPE('Table (2)'[Database]),MAX('Table (2)'[LastBackupDate]))

Please note that "Show items as no data" is enabled in SQLservername:

@lovepbi create a measure for LastBackupDate and then use ISINSCOPE function to return BLANK() value when your scope is SQL Server Name

Would appreciate Kudos if my solution helped.

new to powerbi, I tried this:, seeing a syntax error:

 

mLastBackupDate = IF(ISINSCOPE(vwBackupInfo[DatabaseName]),vwBackupInfo[LastBackupTime],Blank())

well, the problem now is, when i click the drill up icon, all my data disappears if i use a measure.

@lovepbi you need to add this as a measure and use aggregation like MAX or MIN
