Clustered Column chart with Data from two datasets

I feel like I am being dense and what I want to do is possible but I can't figure it out.

 

I have two separate datasets in my powerbi.

The first is an odata link to an onprem SharePoint list where I am pivoting the quantity of projects in progress by team name. Unique identifier /value in that data set is ID - so its telling me each team has a status of x projects that is "in progress". (image below)

 

I have another set of data that is a list of the same team names, with their capacity. Its a manual chart added in excel to the powerbi. (image below)

 

I have the two datasets linked by the team names that match

 

I want to create a clustered column chart where I can show the work in progress by team, next to what their capacity is.

How can I do this? I can't seem to figure out how to get both to line up on teh same chart. I cannot update the sharepoint list - and want to be able to refresh to get a current portrait of work in progress on the chart.

Technically you have 1 dataset (Data model) and 2 tables. You either need to merge the 2 tables into 1, or load a third table that contains a list of all of the unique team names, remove the current join and link both tables to the new table. Put the column from the third table as the axis, and then columns from the other 2 tables as your values
