Measure not display in chart

I have the following two columns are in direct query Date&Time and Time2. I created new measue based on the Date&time column for Time1. 

Time1 = FORMAT(CALCULATE(MAX('TIME'[Date&Time])),"HH:MM:SS")

I created the Time difference measure based on the Time1 and Time2 measures by usig the following measure.

Time Difference = FORMAT(SELECTEDVALUE('TIME'[Time2],0)-[Time1],"HH:MM:SS")

I am trying to dragging the "The Time Difference" measure into Y axis (Stacked column chart) but unale to do it and it went to tooltip option. 
I want to see the time difference (Max, Min, Count and Average) based on the Date&Time column(X-axis) in Stacked column chart.
Can you please assite me where the measure need to be modify in order to move the measue column into Y axis (Stacked column chart).

Hi @Saxon202202,

 

Since you are formatting the measures has text you cannot used them in a bar chart or any ohhter type except tables. 

 

 

To have this working on a chart you need to use the formatting trough a calculation item. 

 

If you want I can setup an example and share with you. 


Regards

@MFelix , Thanks for your reply. Yes, please help me and explain the steps and share the PBI file. 
just let you know the source of data is direct query and came SQL.
I am trying to change the datatype by using convert function with data type "Date and Time" but still same result.

Hi @Saxon202202 ,

 

Unfortunalty the calculation groups do not work in Direct Query mode so this option is not available for your case, even so if you are interested I can send you a wakltrough.

HI @Saxon202202,

I think this should be related to format function.
AFAIK, format function will force convert the result value to text which not able to be aggregated. (notice: measure formula not able to use on axis field and text type not able to use as aggregated value field)
