How to get Direct Values in Column Chart instead of Aggregated values

I have the following 2 tables and wanted help to have a chart done as below from the 2 tables in PBI Desktop.

 

The below chart I did in Excel, and wanted to get it done in PBI. I make a Pivot Table from Table-2 and then added another column and did a VLookup to pull the Capacity value from Table-1 and then did a Chart.


Another way we can do this in Excel is to add a new column to Table-1 and get the Sum of the Consumed Value for each Work Id from Table-2 (SUM based on Filter) and do a chart from Table-1.

Table-1

ProgramWorkIdCapacity
P1W125
P1W220
P1W328

 

Table-2

JobIdWorkIdConsumed
101W110
102W14
103W18
104W212
105W212
106W315
107W310


Thanks,

@prabhatnath , create a common table work id and join with both tables and use that in visual

 

workid= distinct(union(distinct(Table1[workid]),distinct(Table2[workid])))

 

Sum of consumed and capacity with common dimension in visual will do

2. create two measure with below dax formula

Measure =
VAR _id =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Table3[WorkId] )
VAR tmp1 =
    FILTER ( ALL ( Table1 ), [WorkId] = _id )
RETURN
    SUMX ( tmp1, [Capacity] )
Measure2 =
VAR _id =
    SELECTEDVALUE ( Table3[WorkId] )
VAR tmp1 =
    FILTER ( ALL ( Table2 ), [WorkId] = _id )
RETURN
    SUMX ( tmp1, [Consumed] )

3. add a clustered column chart with Table3 filed and measure
