I have two tables in my PDF (situated just above and bottom of each other). Only one table will be shown depending on another checkbox.
Currently I'm facing issue when the first table has its presence set to invisible, there will be a huge blank space then only the second table shown. I want to achieve the effect where the second table will replace the blank space of first table where first table being hidden.
I have tried setting the Content attribute of the tables and subform wrapping the tables to "Flowed" but it doesn't work.
I have solved my question by a "move around" way.
I merged the two tables' rows into one tables then hide show the rows instead which makes it looks like only one table is shown at one time while will not having blank space if the first table is hidden.
Though I still believe that there should be method to have two actual tables at the same time while not having blank space if first table is hidden. I will remain this question open for another week in case a real answer is posted else I will accept this answer.

I have a data set which I want to attribute some new values but since the table has multiple identical time series per for one unit I end up with too many values. unfortunately removing duplicates does not work, since the time series repeat for every unit.
My Question is: How could I remove the excess data.
The Data set looks something like this rn:

And this would be my optimal outcome:

Removing duplicates will absolutely work. Just click select BOTH columns then right click and remove duplicates.
I'm not quite sure whether the description for the column I'm working on is proper, so bear with me.
I got an Interactive Grid that I'm adapting, and it's supposed to work such as this:
It should select a name on the first column (an autocomplete field), followed by 3 columns, each with a checkbox. I need to order the data in the grid by the name in the first column. Problem is, I can't use an "order by" in the select statement, so I need to use APEX's "Column sorting".
The column for the name, however, isn't shown in the list to select the order by value. I only get the 3 checkboxes as an option to order it.
I tried having a copy of the name column, but this time, hidden (and not an autocomplete field), but it doesn't work either. Is there a workaround for this?
The IG will only allow you to sort by columns that have been enabled for sorting. By default, only columns of certain data types and maximum lengths are enabled for sorting, but you can override this for each column in your IG definition.
so, I got 3 xlsx full of data already treated, so I pretty much just got to display the data using the graphs. The problem seems to be, that Powerbi aggregates all numeric data (using: count, sum, etc.) In their community they suggest to create new measures, the thing is, in that case I HAVE TO CREATE A LOT OF MEASURES...Also, I tried to convert the data to text and even so, Powerbi counts it!!!
any help, pls?
There are several ways to tackle this:
When you pull a field into the field well for a visualisation, you can click the drop down in the field well and select "Don't summarize"
in the data model, select the column and on the ribbon select "don't summarize" as the summarization option in the Properties group.
The screenshot shows the field well option on the left and the data model options on the right, one for a numeric and one for a text field.
And, yes, you never want to use the implicit measures, i.e. the automatic calculations that Power BI creates. If you want to keep on top of what is being calculated, create your own measures, and yes, there will be many.
Edit: If by "aggregating" you are referring to the fact that text values will be grouped in a table (you don't see any duplicates), then you need to add a column with unique values to the table so all the duplicates of the text values show up. This can be done in the data source by adding an Index column, then using that Index column in the table and setting it to a very narrow with to make it invisible.
I have a dataset with multiple tables and relationships between those tables which were auto detected when I connected to my PostgreSQL server.
But when I add a column using query, those relationships are no longer effective in the report view and all my graphs show 'blank' labels.
One thing I noticed is that in the Data view, the uuid which are used to make the relationships (my foreign keys in PSQL) appear with brackets and those brackets desappear after I add columns in query.
Before:
After:
I don't know if this helps.
I have tried adding columns with custom queries or simply duplicating an existing column.
I don't have any issue when adding columns using DAX.
Thanks,
Change the type of the column by yourself as one of the first steps in the query editor. You can either go with the brackets or without. Make sure its the same for every other key-/foreign key.
If you lost your relationship you can edit it by yourself. After your ID´s are proparly formatted go to Model (the last on the left pane) and drag and drop your relationship form one table to the other. This way it should work again.
It looks like Power BI is doing some form of SQL Union logic when combining data from two or more tables on a table visual.
In the image above you can see there are only two rows displayed. Within the data however there are in fact 4 rows, and all are valid to me. When I add another column that is distinct per row, it shows the data I expect. See image below:
I have two questions, can I change this default behavior?
If not, can I hide a column within a table visual while still having its data affect the display? That OrderDetailKey has no value to my users, which is why I didn't display it in the first place.
