Hi all,
I'd like to put two bars with similar Y axis, one to show the budget value and other a stacked column with three values within.
I tried to do it but couldn't put the two together. The result is like below on the print, it feels strange to look at it because the Y axis is very different, and what I really want to do is to visualize the right bar fulfilling until it gets like the "Budget" bar.

Thanks in advance
Hi @EricHHA ,
I'm afraid power bi cannot seem to meet your requirement 100% currently because your x-axis seems different.
Supposing that your data has a hierachy-level, using drilldown also cannot show the two columns at the same time. You can use waterfall chart to meet part of your requirement not all like this:
You can submit the requirement to ideas and add your comments there to help us improve power bi and make this feature coming sooner: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas

My pleasure. It's a waterfall chart.

@v-yingjl I'm struggling to design a graph like yours. Based upon the excel below, how can I have one graph for the column "Grant KBRL" and other three for each other column, like yours?
How is the data in your excel?
TKs!!!
Hi @EricHHA ,
Seems like two different tables in a single file.
My sample is very simple, just have one tabe like this:
If there are two tables, I'm afraid it could not achieve it at the same time currently because the total column is an attribute of its own in waterfall chart.

Hi @v-yingjl
The img that I posted, shows a single table, with that many columns.
There isn't a workaround using another tool to achieve what I need?
Tks a lot
Hi @EricHHA ,
Maybe like this?

Hi Pragati, thanks for the reply.
I did upload an image of the date regarding the the first img of my post. The values highlighted in circle are the ones that I'd put on the graphs.
