Trouble with Clustered Column X-Axis with two columns.

So I have a dataset that has a Date Originated Column and a Date Complete Column for entries. I want to create a Clustered Column chart where in the x-axis is Jan - Dec only 2022. How would I create one bar that is the Date Originated Column(total count of all the entries that originated that month) and the other is the Date Complete(all entries that were completed that month)? Some entries have a Date originated before 2022 which i don't want to included.

Hi @powerbinoobster ,

Please new a calendar table like:

Calendar = 
ADDCOLUMNS(
    CALENDAR(MIN('Table'[Date Originated]),MAX('Table'[Date Complete])),
    "Year",YEAR([Date]),
    "Month",FORMAT([Date],"mmm"),
    "Month Number",MONTH([Date])
)

Relationships:

Then new 2 measures:

Count of Date Originated = COUNTROWS('Table')
Count of Date Complete = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),USERELATIONSHIP('Table'[Date Complete],'Calendar'[Date]))

and apply them with 'calendar'[year] and [month] to the visual and setting filter like:
