Bar chart with dates as values

Dear All,

 

I would like to convert an existing Excel chart into Power BI visual.

As shown below, this Excel chart is a clustered bar chart with record IDs as Y-axis & 2 different dates (actual & planned completition date) as values:

I have tried to get the same result with Clustered bar chart, but this visual in Power BI does not allow to display dates as values (only as count of dates). I have also thought about to display it on a Gantt chart, but these are only single dates without separate start & end dates.

 

Do you have any idea, how to get the same result in Power BI as in Excel?

 

Thanks for any tips in advance.

Hi @BalazsNy , 

 

You can use the new feature to get the labels to have details turn on:

I'm using a column called End Date so I get the Earliest value but you can also create a measure.
