Column Chart Multiple Measures Group Together By Time Period

Running into the problem if I have Year and Quarter (2016 Q1) or any other legend value where I am not able to have multiple measure values in the Value Section.  

 

 

 

I am able to do this in Excel.   Any ideas how to do this in PowerBI?

    Xiaoxin, thanks for the response.   I can restructure the data, however coming out of our cube, we have the 3 measures today and I can chart them just fine with a cluster chart in Excel.   I was hoping I wouldn't have to change the data model to make this work in PowerBI.

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    You can use clustered column chart to achieve your requirement.

     

    Original table:

     

    Visual:

     

    In addition, if your table not contain the legend value field, you can try to use unpivot columns to transfer the original table.

      What if you want to use a stacked column chart instead of a clustered one?

      In that case, you can't have multiple measures and a legend at the same time. Excel can.
