Total in Bar Chart

Dears,

 

I prepared the chart below, calculating the total price (measure) comparing the real (green) vs planning (blue and yellow) of two plants.

I need to see total at the end of chart. Is that possible?

Hi, 

According to your description, I can roughly understand your requirement, I think the only way to achieve your requirement is to create a calculated table that uses UNION() to add the total rows to be placed into the clustered column chart to display the expected output. you can try my method:

This is the test data I created based on your description:

vrobertqmsft_0-1640831312900.png

 

You can create a calculated table like this:

Total table =

var _summarize=SUMMARIZE('Table','Table'[Type],"1",SUM('Table'[Price]))

var _selectcolumns=SELECTCOLUMNS(_summarize,"Category","Total","Type",[Type],"Price",[1])

return

UNION('Table',_selectcolumns)

 

And you can create a clustered column chart to place like this to get what you want:

You can download my test pbix file below

 

If this result is not what you want, you can post some sample data(without sensitive data) and your expected result.

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

Thanks your suggestion.

 

But the values in my chart are nota column in table, they are measure calculated based on another measure (Price =  Total / Quantity).

 

How can I do this?

 

Thank you.

@iago_salvadori1 , You have to populate the base columns and then use the measure
