Display of hierarchical data in Power BI can be illustrated with Region>Country>City, and a few particular graphics and techniques can present the report in an easily understandable and convincing manner. Here is how to do it effectively:
1. Employing Matrix Visual to Show Hierarchy
In Power BI, a Matrix visual is the best when dealing with hierarchical data since the users are allowed to drill down through the levels in the visual directly. To do this,
Insert info in the siting Hierarchy under the Matrix visual and rows section, e.g. Region, Country, and City. (add the Country last).
In the format pane, `stepped layout` e can be toggled on to help users appreciate the structure of the data without experiencing information overload.
In the settings, you can also memorize the advantageous features of the visual, allowing users to turn on and off levels of the Hierarchy.
2. Developing Advanced Analytical Capabilities by Implementing Drillthrough
Constantly review the analysis of every level and drill from one Country to details of the cities within the Country. To allow:
However, a drill-through page has been created for that purpose, as well as all other 'subordinate' levels of detail.
Include drill-through filters on 'City' fields so members can right-click on a Country and jump to its Cities view.
This helps keep the information management in a clean, high-level stage without limiting the options for obtaining more details.
3. Implementing DAX Techniques to Control Hierarchies
In the case of more complex hierarchy management, the PATH and PATHITEM DAX functions may be handy. These functions can create calculated columns in the form of a structural Hierarchy, which will be useful when doing custom rollups or restricting data within a specified hierarchy. DAX, on the other hand, also contains measures that can enhance the table's visual clarity by emphasizing or formatting data in correspondence to hierarchy levels.
By using the Matrix visual, combined with drill through and DAX as appropriate
