I have this data table in my database. Both seller and contract terms are varchar fields and the rest are float fields.
I want to pivot this to show the end table like below.
However, it seems impossible to do in sisense. I used pivot table in sisense and this is what I could do best, which is not acceptable by my manager.
Below is my settings in sisense using pivot table. I have tried using table which didn't work either. I have read almost everything about pivot tables in the sisense community but nothing seems to help. Can any sisense gurus help with this?
Hey @lalasisi
Sisense does not support this natively. You could create a table on a elasticube level and do the wanted aggregation there. You can also take a look at the Financial Table plugin from @Benji_PaldiTeam Paldi Solutions. This looks similar to what you are trying to do now

Hi @lalasisi ,
With some work, you could change style etc. with the BloX definition below to achieve transposed pivot table. YMMV - so i'd love to hear if this works for you. Please see the image and code below.

}
// Add the table to the document
$(`#table-container${w.oid}`).empty()
$(`#table-container${w.oid}`).append(table)
})
Alternatively - RAPID BI also has Adaptive Pivot Tables plugin, that could be used to achieve this (may be overkill for simple transpose though, but it allows viewer modification of the configuration of the table). Happy to discuss further - please reach out if you'd like to.
Let me know how you go?
Thanks,
