Creating a Bar chart where its value is the difference between the two lines already on chart

Hi 

 

I have some data which I have already put into a chart. The lines are completely independent and I have 2 sets of filters which control them respectively (I have attached the data and the dashboard)

 

I want to create a bar chart that shows the difference between the values of the two lines. Can't seem to get it to work? Ideally on the same chart or on a seperate chart works as well!

 

Thanks

Hey @kash123 ,

 

you can add a measure that is calculating the difference:

Diff Sales Curves = SUM( 'Table Curve 1'[Sales (Millions)] ) - SUM( 'Table Curve 2'[Sales (Millions)] )

 

This measure you can then put into a bar chart as you wanted:

Or for example in a Line and Stacked Column Chart:

Hi @kash123 ,

 

Measure is

Difference = SUM( 'Table Curve 1'[Sales (Millions)] ) - SUM( 'Table Curve 2'[Sales (Millions)] )

 

Put it into the secondary values
