Plotting time Values

Hi, I am fairly new to power BI and seem to be struggling with Time data.

 

I have a time data set that is displayed in MM:SS for a number of takeaway shops. The data is averaged for each takeaway for the year. The times for activities such as taking the placing of the order, cooking time and delivary times are all given. ideally i would like to create a stacked column graph that displays each of the processes (placing of the order, cooking time and delivary times). I would also like this data to be displayed as MM:SS.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi, @Anonymous

Sample data would help tremendously. Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

 

and stacked column graph is a summary graph, you add better convert "time data" to number, Finally, convert the result to the format you want like this post:
