Clustered stacked column chart
trev_likes_PBI
In Power BI Desktop, it’s not possible to create a chart which can combine both Clustered and Stacked column chart together. Because it can’t determine which group of series need to be “clustered”, which group of series need to be “stacked”. And it’s still not supported to add multiple fields into Legend of a chart. The expected result as you posted can’t be achieved. For your requirement, I suggest you add a column to assign type “Forecast” and “Actual”, then build a hierarchy like “Type->Cost”. Put the hierarchy on X-axis, you suppose to drill down the detail level to see those different costs.

I've put a solution together in this blog post if it's still interesting after all these years since this thread was posted 🙂

This solution worked wonders for me, thank you! It did turn out the data structure of my source was similar to the one in your solution so it worked like a charm. But for other users out there, keep in mind you may need to tweak your data structure to make this work. Good luck!
