Multi Line and Column chart

It’s been 2 years since I worked on creating any Power BI reports and it seems I've forgotten nearly everything, which is driving me nuts.
I thought I'd pick on one of our easy excel reports to convert to Power BI to demo to the new business unit I am in, and now I've found myself in a pickle.
All I am trying to do is recreate a chart with 6 lines to show our and the top 6 competitors market share over 5 years and a column to show the total volume sales each year.
Simple in Excel and when I agreed to take this on, I thought it would be even simpler in Power BI.
I've got the Top 6 and their percentage share working correctly and as line chart it’s all good, but when I attempt to change this, to a multi chart it appends all the line together into a single line and breaks the Volume sales by competitor, I literally need the complete opposite.

Any ideas?

Hi @amitchandak 

 

It's easy to forget that the question may be easy for the user to understand...

I need to create a combo chart in Power BI

The combo Chart consists of

  • Fiscal year volume in Columns
  • Volume share of the top 6 in the Market as Lines in the same chart

- as shown in my initial question above

I have the DAX code all created to produce the Volume Share numbers

I am just struggeling to work out how can produce this combo chart.

We use this style of chart a lot.

My next project is to produce another Power Bi report which currectly has around 70 of these 

But I cannot work out how to do this.

If it helps I'll create a pbix file.

Let me know
