Visualization for Time Difference

Hello everyone!

 

I have this data which contain date and time. Time an activity was closed and target time.

Currently, we still cannot use Time as Y-axis right?

 

But is there a way or could you suggest a visualization that I can use to show Time Closed vs Target Time where my shared axis or X-axis is the date? 

 

Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous,

 

No, I haven't heard any plan about this feature.

In fact, current power bi visuals require at least one value filed that can be aggregated as axis field.

AFAIK, time and date type not support summarized, maybe you can try to convert to text type then use it on axis.

 

BTW, gantt visual may suitable for your requirement.
