Simple Milestone Status Indicator

Hi,

 

I’m looking into creating a few simple dashboard status indicators.  The visuals I’ve looked at seem much more involved than what is necessary for my immediate needs.

 

For example, I’d like a Visual that simply lists milestones (text) as rows with an associated make or miss indicator (color coded circle/square/check/X).  Any suggestions of existing Visuals that might help with this?

 

Also, to be a little more informative, I would like to create/use a Visual that would include a list (rows) of milestones (text).   Each milestone would include a target date, % of progress indicator with color coding, and perhaps a check or X for make or miss on the date.  The Bullet Chart Visual seems to come the closest to what I’m looking for.  Can any other Visuals be configured to provide these type of options?

 

I very much appreciate any help provided.

 

Thank you.

You should be able to use a table or matrix visualization with conditional formatting.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

In follow up to my question above, is it possible to include an image (.png, .ico, .jpg, etc.) in a column in a table?  Perhaps using a URL that is pointing to the image on a SharePoint site?
