How to show comparing date in bar chart?
I would look through appSource visuals to see if something there meets your needs. Alternatively, you can trick an array into doing this by making a date table (unrelated to the data), a measure that compares the date with the completed/expected dates, and the conditional formatting in the background and font. See the following example, using the week column of a date table (you could use date, month, and so on) to get the result. It also uses the Show in Rows function of the array visual.
The measures used above are (replace BarChart with the actual name of the table)
Esperado. • var mindate - MIN('Date'[Date])return if(mindate<-MIN(BarChart[Expected]),1)Completado. • var mindate - MIN('Date'[Date])return if(mindate<-MIN(BarChart[Completed]),1)If this works for you, mark it as the solution. Praise is also appreciated. Please let me know if you don't.

Hello Pat,
Thanks for your constructive advice! From your chart, it is almost what I need. However, I am still confusing that how to make Power BI show the 1, 2, ... 23 on the x-asix? I need to create a separate table which includes one date columns, and create 2 measures as you shown. But I have no idea about conditional formatting on background. Would you mind explaining more detail for me?
Best regards,
