Metric Selector Parameter as column

I would like to create a list of metrics as a dimension so I can create the following. I would then need to figure out how to create the second columns that does the correct aggregations. all the documentation I have found only shows the dimension as filter field only when used in a parameter, but I need it in the data pane.

3/In your table settings, switch on the “transpose” option

@antho - yes exactly what I want. Thanks for the response, will mark correct if I can get the solution to work :slight_smile:

@antho do you know if you can add a second column that would do LY YTD so you could then do a table calc comparison?

It is a Custom Dimension because transpose requires at least 1 dimension to work :wink:
