I'm at a blank. In PowerBI I want to be able to take my data, group it into quartiles and create a bar chart similar to below. I can do it in Excel, but have no idea how to do it in PowerBI. Any ideas how to do this?

Hi @Sirhawk3017 ,
@amitchandak Thanks for your reply!
And @Sirhawk3017 , have you solved your problem? If you have solved, please accept @amitchandak 's answer as solution.
And if you have not solved, you can try this way:
Add an Index column in Power Query:
Close & Apply and in Power BI Desktop, create new group for Index:
Then you will get a column like this:
Use this DAX to create a calculated column:
X-axis =
VAR _a = (COUNTROWS('Table') - 1) / 4
RETURN
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
'Table'[Index (bins)] = 1, "Quartiles 1",
'Table'[Index (bins)] = 1 + _a, "Quartiles 2",
'Table'[Index (bins)] = 1 + 2*_a, "Quartiles 3",
"Quartiles 4"
)
And use this DAX to create a measure:
Measure =
CALCULATE(
SUM('Table'[Total Sales ($)]),
ALLEXCEPT('Table', 'Table'[X-axis])
)
Then you can create the visual like this:

Dino Tao
