Bar Chart with Measure Names and Year in column

Hello,

 

I am able to create the below bar graph in Tableau - with the measure names at the top, then their values broken out by year at the bottom. Is there a way I can re-create this view in PowerBi? I can't seem to get it to work right.

I don't think there is a simple way to do that.  However, it would be possible as follows:

 

1.  Make a disconnected table as shown in this video for your measure names.  Also make a measure that references your existing measures based on the measure name selected in your new disconnected table.

2. Instead of a slicer with measure names, use that column on the x-axis of your visual (along with the year).
