I still can't understand your question. Can you clarify your "format issue"?

Hello @v-sihou-msft

 

I have actuals per sales person or month in one column chart.

I have budget per sales person or month in second column chart.

Breakdown per sales person or month is ok.

 

Problem occure when I try to put both actuals and budget to one combain column chart.

I have correct breakdown per sales person or month only for either actual or budget.
I never get correct brekdown for actual and budget.

Only for one or other.

Second is always shows same figure per either sales person or month.

As per attached picture.

 

Can you help with that?

 

thx

Please check if the "Second" measure is under correct aggregation in your chart visual.
