Not able to add a measure in the visualization

[sandeshp]

I have a table which has the a birth_date column. I have added 2 new measures in the table to calculate today's age, and divide the age into age groups:

Age measure:

Age = DATEDIFF(SELECTEDVALUE(birthDates[birth_date]), TODAY(), DAY) / 365.25

Age group measure:

AgeGroup = 
var age = [Age]
RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE(),
age < 16, "0-15",
age < 25, "16-24",
age < 34, "25-33",
age < 43, "34-42",
age < 52, "43-51",
age < 61, "52-60",
age < 79, "60-78",
"79+"
)

I want to create a column chart having age group on the x axis, and count of birth_date on the y axis. But I am not able to add the AgeGroup on the x-axis.

How do I do this?

I have attached the Power BI report link below:

Age Group Power BI report.

Thank you for the response. Is there any way I can show how many rows are in each age group, in a column chart?

Genrally countrow dax is used to find no of rows. But it don't take measure in its paramter.

Hi @sandeshp , 
You cant plot any measure values on x axis , it should be a coulmn only.
On Y axis you can plot any measure.
For your requirement of plotting this measure in column chart , 
you can do like this ,
Plot date , age, agegroup in tble. 
or do like this 

in column chart , plot date column in x axis , measure of age in y axis and agegroup in tooltips.

Hello @sandeshp ,

FYI we can not add measures directly in to the axis of any visual either you have to create a calculated column or you have to create new What-if Parameter using fields option.
