Heatmap Matrix Help

I am trying to create a non-typical heatmap.  I need to have the facility name in their corresponding division and based on a % of completion i will change the colors.  Is this something that can be done in Power BI if so what visualization would i use?

    HI Anonymous,

    I think you need to shape your table structures for matrix usage. You can convert them to 'index', 'division name', 'facility name', and '% of completion'.

    After these steps, you can create a matrix with 'index', 'division name' to row fields, 'facility name' to column fields, '% of completion' to value fields. Then you can write a measure to check the current '% of completion' values to return color code and use on color formatting.

      When i put the facility names in the values within a matrix it only allows for the first of last and the table i just get 2 columns not one division column and the corresponding facility names within that row.
