Hello v-juanli-msft
I've almost managed to recreate your matrix by moving the dimensions into the Values, but the only problem now is that it automatically summarizes just the first value, so it is showing only one record per Insurer_Name. Is there a way to resolve this ?
Add name, code columns in the "ROW" field of the matrix instead of "VALUE" field.
Look at my example
I will show the detailed steps one by one:
turn off "Stepped layout".

1. With a bar chart, it can show all fields in x-Axis
2.
To show all fields names as your pricture, use a matrix visual instead
then select "Value" field->conditional formatting->data bars
It can sort by the "Value", but the order would consider the columns in "Row" fields.
3.
If you want the "Value" to be sorted only by itself, please change the matrix to a table visual

Hi v-juanli-msft - thank you! - the bar chart you attached is exactly what I'm trying to do - but I still can't work out how you did it !
I tried to recreate your bar chart but it still ended up with only one field on the x-axis
(sorry I don't know how to attach a .pbix )
Unfortunately the bar chart visual is one area where Power BI lags far behind Excel (and Tableau) in terms of power and flexibility as it lacks the ability to display multiple levels of grouping and control size of and space between bars.
Edit - there does now seem to be more flexiblity with bar size and space - https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/16737364-allow-configurable-gap-width-between-columns-bars
I believe the example shown above uses the Matrix visual instead as a bit of a hack.
You may also be able to get somewhere near what you want with one of the bar charts from the marketplace which supports "small multiples"Click on the "expand" icon, you could get the visual like mine.
