Beginner question - formatting graph axis
I have read several answered questions in the the forums and can't seem to find exactly what I am looking for. I am fairly new to Power BI so I am still in the learning phase. I am trying to display a simple stacked bar chart using the following data:
Code Duration
H0036 20
H0036 17
H2019 15
H0036 45
H2019 30
My data (from an excel spreadsheet) is over 20k rows of similar data. I was able to create a bar chart (see below) that groups it by the "Code" column and "Duration" column, however it displays the sum of the total number of the duration column per code. What I need to show on the X axis is the this total number divided by 60 (the duration stands for minutes, so I would like to display this as total hours and not total minutes). I have tried measures and calculated formulas and I either I'm not understanding the syntax or how this is supposed to work.
In summary, I basically need to customize the X axis to show this number in total hours.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
HI karnzo
It sounds like a calculated measure should work, if I understand your post.
Something like
Hours = SUM('table1'[Duration] ) / 60and then drag this measure to the values area of your chart in place of the field.
