I am working on a dashboard where I need to be able to show a detailed actual vs. target visually across multiple KPIs by a dimension. I know I can add a "Bar" in conditional formatting for matrix chart, but I need to be able to show whether the value is above/below the target and how far from the target for each KPI in a single column, similar to this example I found:
Is this possible in Power BI? I haven't found a custom visualization that fits the bill, nor any good examples of how to do this in Power BI, and would be grateful for any advice on how to accomplish something similar.

Hi Amit thanks for your quick reply -
The bullet charts only allow for one measure at a time, so this isn't practical for what I am trying to achieve. (see the screen shot I posted above) This is easily achieved in Tableau, so I am really hoping for a similar Power BI solution. There are only 3 bullet chart options available when I click to add more visuals, and none of them allow for multiple measure within the same visual.
For the conditional formatting, I don't think there is a way to make the bar color to show "Green" for above target and "Red" for below for example - you have to put in a discrete value, it cannot be based on another field. This is only allowed for background color.
