Hi there,
I have 2 simple tables
Table 1
Year | Month | Allocated Resources |
2021 | 6 | 8 |
2021 | 7 | 2 |
2021 | 4 | 3 |
And Table 2
Year | Month | Hired |
2021 | 2 | 4 |
2021 | 6 | 2 |
2021 | 3 | 1 |
How can I represent these 2 tables in one chart side by side compare grouped by month?
When I add one table it works and show the breakdown by month, but when I add the second table 'Hired' as values it sums up the values and does it break it down beside the first data.
Your input is much appreciated.
thank you

Hi @tony_tohme ,
The final output refer:
create the column on the two table:
yearmonth = 'Table'[Year]&""&'Table'[Month]
Column = 'Table (2)'[Year]&""&'Table (2)'[Month]
Then create the below table:
Table3 =
DISTINCT (
UNION (
SELECTCOLUMNS (
'Table',
"year", 'Table'[Year],
"month", 'Table'[Month],
"my", 'Table'[yearmonth]
),
SELECTCOLUMNS (
'Table (2)',
"year", 'Table (2)'[Year],
"month", 'Table (2)'[Month],
"my", 'Table (2)'[Column]
)
)
)
Relationship like below:

@tony_tohme , Either create a common month year table or Date table and join with that and analyze other
In both table you can have one of the column
Month Year = [Year]*100 +[Month]
or
Date = date([year],[month],1)
Join both with date table to month year and use that for analysis
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :radacad sqlbi My Video Series Appreciate your Kudos.
