Grouping Measures for Bar Chart

Hello - I currently have several measures that represent different time frames (Last 4 Weeks, Last 4 Weeks Year Ago, Last 13 Weeks, Last 13 Weeks Year Ago, etc) - When placing these measures in a bar chart it just places all of these measures together in a big blob. What I'm looking to do is specifically chart Last 4 Weeks & Last 4 Weeks Year Ago together, Last 13 Weeks & Last 13 Weeks Year Ago together,etc.

Would there be a way to group these measures to accomplish the bar chart scenario I'm describing?

Thanks in advance!

Can you share the source data?

Unfortunately not - I could create some dummy data and re-create the scenario.

 

Would this be the only way to solve?

Sounds like you're referring to something like this:

It's only after I bring a categorical axis value in does it start to look more appealing:

Correct - but I don't exactly have a column to do that with - I'm needing to essentially group two measures at a time - I'm not sure if this is done by creating a new table or if this done a different way.

If you can share some dummy data I can see what I can do.
