Hi all,
I want to implement in PBI the same function as in excel .
I have 2 variables that effect measure and what to see in one table how the change of those 2 variables effect the calculation of the measure.
in excel its located in the following path:
data ribbon
what if
data table
for example multiplication table.
C4 - X
B4 - Y
in the first line of the table in the left - C4 * B4
the function excel create automatic:
{=TABLE(C4,B4)}
output
1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
2 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 16 | 18 | 20 |
3 | 3 | 6 | 9 | 12 | 15 | 18 | 21 | 24 | 27 | 30 |
4 | 4 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 | 28 | 32 | 36 | 40 |
5 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | 35 | 40 | 45 | 50 |
6 | 6 | 12 | 18 | 24 | 30 | 36 | 42 | 48 | 54 | 60 |
7 | 7 | 14 | 21 | 28 | 35 | 42 | 49 | 56 | 63 | 70 |
8 | 8 | 16 | 24 | 32 | 40 | 48 | 56 | 64 | 72 | 80 |
9 | 9 | 18 | 27 | 36 | 45 | 54 | 63 | 72 | 81 | 90 |
10 | 10 | 20 | 30 | 40 | 50 | 60 | 70 | 80 | 90 | 100 |
Is it possible to implement it in excel?
thanks in advanced.

Hi @nirrobi,
It is not possible to generate such an data table automatically in Power BI desktop.
But we can achieve a similar output via below workaround. It would be better that the dataset imported into Power BI looks like:
Based on this basic table, you should create a calculated table using this formula:
Sheet2 = CROSSJOIN(SELECTCOLUMNS(Sheet1,"X",Sheet1[X]),SELECTCOLUMNS(Sheet1,"Y",Sheet1[Y]))
Create a measure that returns multiplication values.
multiplication = MAX(Sheet2[X])*MAX(Sheet2[Y])
In report view, insert a Matrix visual to display data.
Best regards,
Yuliana Gu

Dear Yuliana ,
thanks for your message.
When I follow your guidence I ended with this table :
I change the base table as follow:
I use your formula for the new table:
Sheet2 =
CROSSJOIN(
SELECTCOLUMNS( Sheet1, "X" , Sheet1[X]),
SELECTCOLUMNS( Sheet1 ,"Y" , Sheet1[Y] ))
and got this table - 100 rows:
and the formula for the measure:
multiplication = MAX( Sheet2[X] ) * MAX( Sheet1[Y] )
can you please check if you see any reason for that?
I reproduce from scratch and I works smoothly.
many thanks,
Nir
