Hi Power BI Experts. Asking for your help please. I wish to divide the category on the bar based on the count the % capacity required appeared.
The scenario:
An employee has a maximum percent (ex. 100%, 70% or 50%). He is being assigned with a certain percent to work. If the employee has 100% max percent and he was assigned with 25%, 25% and 50%, I want to see in one bar the division of these 3 percents.
What I have now:
As you can see the 25 percent (which has "2" count) was merged in the first slice of the bar. I want to split the two 25 percents.
What I wish to have:
Thank you for your help 🙂
Solved! Go to Solution.
Makes sense.
I've attached a PBIX file for you to look at.
Before I spend too much time on it, I thought it might be easier to start with this and see what is non-negotiable.
The layout may be difficult to achieve without a custom visual.
There are options for custom visuals but it may not add much value.
All of this working is dependent on the actual model/data so have a look at the PBIX attached and let me know if you have any questions.

No problem. Happy to help.
Did you figure out the max capacity bar?
You may prefer the markers off and line on also.
It's annoying that you can do this layout with a column chart but not a bar chart.

Can you paste some sample data please?
It will make it much easier to help you.

Hi @KNP Thank you. Here's the sample data. For the employee 2 in "What I wsh to have" graph, the 30 there is the remaining percent left to the employee.
Project | Assigned Employee | Percent Assigned |
Project A | Employee 1 | 25 |
Project B | Employee 1 | 25 |
Project C | Employee 1 | 50 |
Project D | Employee2 | 40 |
Employee | Max Percent |
Employee 1 | 100 |
Employee 2 | 70 |
Thanks for the data.
Unless I'm doing math wrong, I don't get the employee 2 scenario.
30 + 40 = 70

Hi @KNP I added another table.
I have another table for the list of employees with max percent.
So that math would be
Employee 1 : 100 -25 -25- 50 = 0% (which means 100% is maximised or utilised)
Employee 2 = 70- 40 = 30% (which means 40% assigned , 30% available percent or left from 70% maximum capacity

Hi @KNP the marker is fine. I just really need the division of assigned percent. Superb. Thanks again.
