How to use KPIs to Display Value vs. Target Differences Without a Trend Axis

I want to compare two numbers using the KPI feature in Power BI. I provide values for the "Value" and "Target" sections, but it doesn't work without a trend axis. How can I use the KPI module without providing a trend axis? My goal is to find the difference between the "Value" and "Target" and display it on the trend axis (like percentage, difference, etc.)

Hi @hasaneyldrm 

The visual you are using requires a range of dates in order to automatically display the comparison.
I suggest you use the new Power BI Card Visual which has plenty of flexibility and will allow you to configure the required comparisons.
