Visuals on more than one column

I have three data columns that I need to create a visual (bar graph or table).  Is there a way to create the chart based on the three columns?

 

Example:

Status 1 

Completed

 

Status 2

Pending

 

Status 3

Escalate

@Alaska1 

you can try to do the data transform in PQ

 

let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45Wcs7PLchJLUlNUdJRCkjNS8nMSweyXIuTE3MSS1KVYnVooUQBjLGJEmEqRKNnXjJUljzzKNKCw3JswrEA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Completed = _t, Pending = _t, Escalate = _t]),
Custom1 = Table.FromList( List.Combine(Table.ToColumns( Source))),
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(Custom1, each ([Column1] <> " ")),
#"Duplicated Column" = Table.DuplicateColumn(#"Filtered Rows", "Column1", "Column1 - Copy"),
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Duplicated Column", {"Column1"}, {{"Count", each Table.RowCount(_), Int64.Type}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"

then it will be easy to draw the pie chart.

Hello @Alaska1 ,
You might need to transform your data (Unpivot in power query or update directly in excel). Please see below data structure.

After this you can simply select the type of visual in the below case I have selected clustered column chart and put in field accordingly
