Combining different charts into one

I've been asked to recreate a visual my team has in Tableau or find an alternate way of depicting the same data in one visual.

 

The Tableau visual is a combination chart with 3 sections.  The first is table (category, decription, project ID), followed by a stacked horizontal bar chart that depicts the projected and actual budget, and another chart with markers depicting the start/end dates.  This is all ONE chart in Tableau.

 

I can't find anything in PowerBi that would support this.

 

I found a tutorial (www.tutorialgateway.org/add-data-bars-to-table-in-power-bi/.  It's not exactly what I need, but I may be able to leverage it for 2 of the 3 parts... but not sure what I would do about the start/end dates.

 

I can't just overlay two different charts next to each other because the number of entries may differ based on some filter selections and I read that PowerBI doesn't currenlty support syncronized scrolling. 

 

Any creative ideas out there?  

 

Thanks!

Hi  @KDS ,

 

There are a couple of options, you can check the APPSource to check if there is a custom visual already created:

https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps?product=power-bi-visuals

 

Another option is to use the Charticulator to create your own chart:

https://charticulator.com/ (this is the link of the page but there is a Custom visual for Power BI Desktop)

 

Lastly you can try and get the visualization created using R.

Hi @KDS,

You can also take a look at the following link 'start date', 'end date' part to know more about handling with date range on multiple date fields.
Before You Post, Read This

You have a “start date” and an “end date” and are trying to know how many of something you have on all of the dates between your date intervals.

Take a look at these two Quick Measures as probably want something like them.
