I didn't see any posts about this in the Analyzer Ideas section, so if there is already a post out there, I will upvote that if someone can send me the link. Anyway, pivot tables should have the same functionality as Excel where you can move the values to either rows or columns. The current solution is to create yet another ETL and pivot the data. This is not sustainable because it just adds to growth of data and is not necessary.

  • Fully agree on the need for this. Had to use a cross join against a webform of measure names to accomplish this. In my case there were 6 values we wanted on rows, so the cross-join increased our row count 6-fold.

  • Dealing with this exact issue on a request from our CEO. So incredibly easy in Excel and super difficult in DOMO because you can't easily pivot row and column fields

  • Same - I'm doing an obnoxious MagicETL to accommodate.

  • Not being able to choose how values are displayed is especially clunky when paired with the fact that dates can only be natively grouped (using "Graph by") as a column, not a row. It makes it challenging to display information concisely without having to scroll
