If this post helps, then please consider Accept it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.We created an org chart using the Power BI standard Matrix visual for division within the State of Utah. The data resides in a RDBMS system, essentially a single table with a parent-child relationship. Using a SQL technique known as a "recursive query", we were able to create what you see here:

Would you be able to share the process a bit more in detail, this will be very helpful as I am trying to create the org chart for about 1400 employees and didn't find any compolete process any where.
My data set has Emplyees and their employee IDs and the name of their managers. Just wondering how to go about setting up the source data. It will be very time consuming to create Parent and child IDs manually
Thanks, appreciate any inputs
There are other free custom visuals such as Org Chart Drag and Drop which does not require a license to just create org charts with your data.
There is a couple minute demo video of it here Power BI - Org Chart Drag and Drop Demo
