I've created a custom screen which formats grid fields based on setup data in another table. One thing I'm trying to do is find out if there is a way to order the field columns in a grid in code, i.e., order the columns based on a column order information I obtain from that setup table.
Is this possible?

I am trying to create a data table with multiple outputs across periods, but for the same scenarios.
Is it possible to create that without inserting an extra column between each output column to deliver input for the data table (i.e. input column = index 50-110).
Is this in any way possible? See picture of what I would usually mark to create the data table (this does only cover one period/output though). But if I were to make the scenario for FY23, then I would need to insert a column between FY22 and FY23 where I copy the index 50-110 again. I would like to not have to do that.
I have a bunch of values that are part of categories. Now I want to show the sum of each category in my chart. How can I group rows values of the same category in my chart only?
Basically, you can't achieve aggregate result without some data manipulation.
There are two ways to go on that issue.
First ,create a distinct categories, then sum-up the values by category using SUMIF Excel function, create your chart. The draw back of this method that if more categories added you'll have to add them manually.
Second option, is to create a Pivot-table of your original data and only afterwards create pie chart.This option is more convenient, hence it is a scalable solution
Have a great day
The default List layout uses column headers with columns of data beneath them. This will not work for my report. I need to create an employee profile report that will return about 75 fields (job title, location, tax status, payroll deductions, etc.). This is a report that I want to be able to print on a single page for each employee. Using the The default List layout extends the data out in columns beyond the limits of a printed page, even in landscape.
How can I get my report to display in rows instead of columns, so that the field headers go from the top of the page to the bottom, with the data to the right of the headers. Even this will not be long enough to fit on a single page (that is easily readable), so I will need a second list to the right of the first. Like this:
Name: data Company: data
Location: data Employee Number: data
Job Title: data Date Hired: data
Thanks!
You can use a Repeater Table object to do what you want. This should be available in your toolbox. You group on the value you want to repeat on, likely an employee identifier in your case, and section on that value. That will produce one table per unique identifier value. In the table itself you can configure the number of rows and columns to fit the layout you want to produce and you are free to drag and drop objects from the model or query into the cells as needed.
I will have Multiple Tabs, each tab will be called
Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta etc
Every tab will have contain multiple tables containing values, called...
{TABNAME}First, {TABNAME}Second, {TABNAME}Third, {TABNAME}Forth.
this will ultimately give me 4 tables for First called,
AlphaFirst, BetaFirst,GammaFirst, DeltaFirst.....
I was wondering if there is anyway i can pick/input a value in a cell, on a tab with none of these tables, for instance select 'Third'
And below this cell, or anywhere on this tab all version of 'third' will appear, so the tables for AlphaThird, BetaThird, GammaThird etc will appear, either seperatley, or the data merged into a single table.
if you need more information or examples, please let me know and i will update as best i can.
I guess to summarise, is it possible to call forward multiple tables using a cell as the criteria for which tables to call forward.
Further details - Edit
Every table will contain the same column headers and contain the same ranges of data within them. They will always have the same number of columns, However each table can contain any amount of rows.
The values in the tables are all manually typed or picked from a pickList, containing no Formula
To put this into a Scenario, there is 5 shops, a Tab for each, On each Tab is a Table for each Supplier we have, containing any Order information from that store for each supplier.
I wish to choose a supplier on a separate tab and have all orders with that supplier appear on the page for every store. the Store name does not need to be displayed, i just wish to know what is on order with that supplier.
I have a list of items - each item has a title, plus a bunch of attributes, including a date.
If I drop the date into the row box of a pivot table, then group it, and drop the title below - so I have Years, Quarters, Created On, Title, I get a nice list of all the titles in my data, grouped by year, quarter and month.
But I want to also display all the other attributes next to the title of each one - all the associated data for each row. With the textural ones, I don't want to count them - I just want to list the entire data set, but grouped by date. If I add them to the other pivot table boxes it starts doing the usual counting...
It would be nice to have all the extra filtering power of pivot tables, but am I making this too hard?
Thanks for your help.
To display text data, you will need to use the data label feature.
Non pivotable text aggregation is easily accomplished in M code in power query One of my posts.
