Can not show the data in virtualization

I can't show the data in the visualization. For example, the default pie chart in Picture 1 is fine, but when I put the data (Gender) into the pie chart, it won't display. The same situation occurs with other visualizations, such as bar charts. Can anyone help?

Hi @BenChang 

 

In the Values section you need to add a measure or a column that you an count on, in this case maybe an employee id?

 

Hope this helps

Joe
