Hello,
I have a question about creating a measure for a specific visualization in Power BI. I currently have the stacked column chart, where the stacked columns are 'Cost' for different 'Type' of expenses each month. I've also included a line value (made using a measure) of the maximum 'Available Income' each month. The visualization I want to create includes 2 parts:
EDIT - I was able to get the results in Excel and just display the results in Power BI visualization for a more straightforward approach instead of using complicated measures.
Thank you!
for the first part you will have to define how the different categories should be cut to stay under the green line. Proportionally? In a particular order? In which order?
The "carry over" part can get very (very) complex very quickly especially when the carry happens across multiple successors.
Thank you for your response!
I realized I can easily get the results in Excel instead of creating more complex measures in Power BI.
I appreciate your time and help. 🙂
