How to Display Multiple Rows in a Single Cell of a Matrix or a Table

~ Business Intelligist

How can I condense multiple rows into a single cell in a Matrix or a Table?

Obviously, it is easy to display all details like you see below:

But what if for every product I just want to know what countries it is selling in and what channels are used? Like how it is displayed below:

Turns out we have to write a bit of DAX but thankfully, not much at all.

You can get the detailed explanation from my video but here are the DAX calculations that I had to create to enable this use-case.

Product Channels = 
IF(
    HASONEVALUE('Product'[Product]),
    CONCATENATEX
    (
        Channel, 
        "• " & Channel[Channel], 
        UNICHAR(10)&UNICHAR(13) , 
        Channel[Channel]
        )
)

Product Countries = 
IF(
    HASONEVALUE('Product'[Product]),
    CONCATENATEX
    (
        Country, 
        "• " & Country[Country], 
        UNICHAR(10)&UNICHAR(13) , 
        Country[Country]
        )
)

  1. Hi, thanks for sharing, this is almost exactly what I was looking for. Except how did you git rid of the full list in the last row, the total row? I don’t necessarily need a total row, so if you could help me either getting rid of the total rows and columns or changing them somehow to the sum or empty fields, you would be a great help. Thanks a lot!!
