Exceeded target visual

Hi

 

I'm looking for help on the best way to show a KPI where the target has been exceeded. For example, target was 1 million but actual was 3.5 million. I tried using a gauge but it doesn't clearly show how in excess of the target the actual is.

 

Anyone have any good ways to show something like this?

 

Thanks!

  • Hi Hannah13 ,

     

    How about "Data Bar KPI"?Such as below:

     

     

    You can use a measure to show the gap(I marked in yellow circle):

     

    Measure = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Consumption])-SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1])

     

     

    You can also convert the gap to an absolute value using below measure:

     

     

    Measure = ABS(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Column1])-SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Consumption]))

     

     

    Here is a sample .pbix you can refer to.

     

    Best Regards,
    Kelly

      Thanks for your reply. I can't quite get this to work. I think it's because I only have the one set of figures rather than varying figures over a time period. It's literally a year end amount and a target. Thanks.
