Hello everyone,
I would like to have a stacked column bar within my stacked column chart. Is this possible?
My goal is to compare the estimated hours and working hours in our project in a stacked bar chart. However, I want to have a stacked column for the two categories of working hours.
I hope you can help me with that.
Best regards!

Hi @PhiBu ,
Looking at you data what I did was the following:
Category | ID |
Estimated | 1 |
Internal/External | 2 |
Estimated = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Selection'[ID]) = 1 ; SUM('Jira-Issues'[Estimate Time [h]]]); BLANK())
External = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Selection'[id]) = 2 ; SUM('Jira-Worklogs'[External Time Spent [h]]]); BLANK())
Internal = IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Selection'[ID]) = 2 ; SUM('Jira-Worklogs'[Internal Time Spent [h]]]); BLANK())
Now create a Stacked Column chart with the following setup:
Final result is in attach PBIX file (file in May version of PBI).
Be aware that the Hierarchy on the X-Axis need to be kept due to the setup what you can due is to concatenet the labels.

Check out my blog: Power BI em PortuguêsHi @PhiBu ,
Not really sure if I understand from the image what are the values to sum but the option is to do the following:
Type |
Estimated |
Actuals |
Now create 2 measures:
Estimated =
IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Type]) = "Estimated"; SUM(Table[Estimated]); BLANNK() )
Internal =
IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Type]) = "Actuals"; SUM(Table[Internal]); BLANNK() )
External =
IF(SELECTEDVALUE(Table[Type]) = "Actuals"; SUM(Table[External]); BLANNK() )
Now just add this 3 Measures on your stack chart and you should get internal on top of external and Estimated to the side.
Be aware that I'm assuming that you have a colum for estimated / interal / external but can be categories you just need to redo the measures accordingly.

Check out my blog: Power BI em Português@PhiBu , you have check for custom visual for that, I doubt anything in power bi like that

@PhiBu you can achieve this by using In-hierarchy drill down and can get you the expected output, something like this

Hello,
Many thanks for the quick response.
The problem is that the actuals (internal and external working times) and the estimated working hours are in different tables. For the x-axes in my diagram I use a label (string format) from the table that also contains the estimated working hours. There is a 1:n relationship between the "Estimated Hours Table" and the "Internal and External Working Hours Table".
The solution with the in-hirachie does not fit. Also the solution with @MFelix did not work for me.
Any other ideas? I hope you can help me :).
With kind regards.
Best regards.
Hi @PhiBu ,
Using the process that I show should work but probably theres is the need to make some adjustments, can you share a mockup sample of ypur data and relationships?

Check out my blog: Power BI em PortuguêsHey @MFelix,
thanks for your help. It looks like that I dont have permission to upload attachments.
The data I used for my mockup sample are:
Jira-Issues
Key | Month | Estimated Time[h] |
6000 | 20-May | 10 |
7000 | 20-May | 20 |
8000 | 20-May | 5 |
1000 | 20-April | 3 |
2000 | 20-April | 8 |
3000 | 20-April | 16 |
Jira-Worklogs
Key | External Timespent[h] | Internal Timespent[h] |
6000 | 3 | |
6000 | 3 | |
6000 | 4 | |
7000 | 10 | |
7000 | 10 | |
7000 | 5 | |
8000 | 5 | |
1000 | 4 | 4 |
2000 | 8 | |
3000 | 4 | |
3000 | 8 | |
3000 | 4 |
I used the column key as relation and created a clustered column chart. The column Month is a sting, not a date value. The result looks like that:
Hope you can copy these tables in MS-Excel and help me with my issue.
Best regards and thanks in advance!

Check out my blog: Power BI em Português@PhiBu that' the closest you can get from standard visuals, check for custom visual if there is a visual that can meet your requirement.
