Help with weight break list
Hi everyone,
I have a column graph which contains gross mass on the Y-axis and months on the X-axis. What I am trying to do is have each bar show through colouring splitting how many tonnes are within different weight brackets. These are the different weight brackets:
| Gross mass weight break |
| <=14 |
| <=15 |
| <=16 |
| <=17 |
| <=18 |
| <=19 |
| <=20 |
| <=21 |
| <=22 |
| <=23 |
| <=24 |
| <=25 |
| <=26 |
| <=27 |
| <=28 |
| <=29 |
| <=30 |
Normally I would just use an if function however there are 17 different weight brackets. Is there a more efficient way to do this within Power BI?
Thanks,
How about something like this? - http://www.powerpivotpro.com/2014/11/new-twist-for-dynamic-segmentation-variable-grain-range-selection/

Thanks itchyeyeballs I will check out the page, it seems to be what I am needing.

Are your weights in tonnes now? IE, 13.52, 18.01 etc..., you might be able to use RoundDown since all of your buckets are a single tonne wide. If you want to break it up by more than a single tonne, like 13-16, 17-20 etc... you could find an equation using MOD to determine remainder of a division problem.
You'd probably need to create a measure filterable by month, using a count of each bucket, then drag the month into Axis of a clustered bar chart.
EDIT: You could also use a stacked bar, I suppose, though I think the clustered might give you more readable results.
