Clustered Column Chart with two data sets

I am relatively new to Power BI and am trying to display some survey results in a bar chart. I have two seperate data sources for two seperate groups of people. The survey questions asked the user to give a rank from 1 to 5 to a group of questions. The bar charts display the rank given along the x axis and a count of how many people chose each rank. I am able to create seperate bar charts that show the data but when I try to do a clustered bar chart it shows up as a count for one group of data (correctly) and a total for the other even though both are set to be counts. I think it has something to do with the Axis fields but I do not fully understand how these work.

Hi

Make sure to use not only the Axis but also the legend to do the break-down.

 

Thank you

That does not seem to help my issue. If I have two Axis and two value data sources, it won't even let me put anything in Legend.

Hi John 

Do you have two tables on this model?

Is there an active relationship between these two tables?
