Hierarchical legend in graph

Hello,

 

I use a table F_DOSSIERS with the fields EMPLOYEE, REGION, OFFICE, CREATION_DATE, AMMOUNT_DOSSIERS:

Legend_05.jpg

 

I want to make a clustered column chart (or any chart with a legend) based on

Axis:       Hierarchy of CREATION_DATE

Value:     SUM(AMOUNT_DOSSIERS)

Legend:  REGION
               OFFICE

 

But it's impossible to add more than one field in Legend. Its either REGION or OFFICE

 

Legend_03.jpg       Legend_04.jpg

 

The graphs are respectively:

Legend_01.jpgLegend_02.jpg

 

Is there a way to have a hierarchy in Legend in such a way that for legend a drildown can be used

I tried making a hierarchy 

 

Legend_06.jpg

 

But when I add this Hierarchy to the Legend, only one of the fields is accepted:

 

Legend_07.jpg       Legend_08.jpg

I want to realise this without using bookmarks

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks

 

R.W.

@Anonymous I think you could achieve your goal if you follow the approach described in this video:

@Anonymous I don't know this you can have a hierarchy on the legend, I think bookmark is your best option.

thanks, but I use already several bookmarks to show 16 different graphs and tables and matrices.
If I combine that it becomes at least 32 bookmarks to make the differents visualisations.
This is unmaintainable. Thats why I was looking for a solution without bookmarks

@Anonymous bottom line is you cannot have multiple legends.

A real pity.
In QlikView this is completely possible.
I'm asked to convert a QlikView report to Power BI...

@Anonymous not surprised, you should add this as an idea on ideas forum.
