Column Chart Multiple Measures Group Together By Time Period

Running into the problem if I have Year and Quarter (2016 Q1) or any other legend value where I am not able to have multiple measure values in the Value Section.  

 

 

 

I am able to do this in Excel.   Any ideas how to do this in PowerBI?

Xiaoxin, thanks for the response.   I can restructure the data, however coming out of our cube, we have the 3 measures today and I can chart them just fine with a cluster chart in Excel.   I was hoping I wouldn't have to change the data model to make this work in PowerBI.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

You can use clustered column chart to achieve your requirement.

In addition, if your table not contain the legend value field, you can try to use unpivot columns to transfer the original table.

What if you want to use a stacked column chart instead of a clustered one?

In that case, you can't have multiple measures and a legend at the same time. Excel can.
