How to Create Matrix in Power BI

Updated on:
May 12, 2026
By:
Madhav Bhandari
Use this interactive demo to learn how to build a Matrix visual in Power BI Desktop.

Quick summary

A Matrix visual in Power BI lets you display data in a cross-tabular format, automatically grouping and summarizing values across rows and columns. This guide walks you through selecting the Matrix icon from the Visualizations pane and adding fields to generate a structured, multi-dimensional table.


Steps

  1. Open Power BI Desktop to begin building your report.
  2. Select your visual on the report canvas where you want to place the matrix.
  3. In the Visualizations pane, click the Matrix icon to insert a matrix visual.
  4. Add fields to the matrix — Power BI will automatically group and summarize values based on your selections.

📌 Why this matters

The Matrix visual in Power BI is one of the most powerful tools for cross-tabular data analysis, enabling users to display hierarchical rows, columns, and aggregated values in a single structured view. It replaces complex manual pivot tables with an automatically grouped and summarized layout, making multi-dimensional reporting faster and more accurate. For business analysts and data teams, mastering the Matrix visual unlocks deeper insights from large datasets directly within the Power BI Desktop environment. This feature is essential for anyone building executive dashboards, financial reports, or sales performance summaries in Power BI.
