I have a dataset containing the beginning and the end of a series of tasks that equipment executes. In this table, there is the name of the equipment, the task, beginning datetime, and end datetime.
I need to create a bar chart where each segment represents the total amount of minutes for a specific task for each equipment. However, I also need to insertthe free time into the chart.
Considering the following example
| Equipment | Task | Start | Finish |
| Car 1 | Deposit | 12/5/2023 10:00:00 | 12/5/2023 11:00:00 |
| Car 1 | Withdraw | 12/5/2023 12:00:00 | 12/5/2023 13:00:00 |
| Car 1 | Deposit | 12/5/2023 13:00:00 | 12/5/2023 14:00:00 |
| Car 1 | Withdraw | 12/5/2023 14:00:00 | 12/5/2023 15:00:00 |
| Car 1 | Deposit | 12/5/2023 18:00:00 | 12/5/2023 19:00:00 |
Car 1 spent 3 hours depositing and 2 hours withdrawing, with a total free time on 12/05/2023 of 19 hours.
The bar chart would look something like this if the date filter was applied on 12/07/2023:
How can I do this within Power BI? Currently, I am creating fictitious "Free Time" tasks outside of Power BI for each equipment.

I created three measures and visualized using the 100% Stack Bar Chart. The time difference was calculated as minutes.
Here are is the result and the file is attached below:

Thank you. That's exactly it. With this, I can also filter the first and last Start column and multiply the free time if more days are selected! Thanks.
