I have a problem. I am trying to evaluate when all my vehicles are busy servicing customers. I have reworked this data many times trying to get an answer and I can’t get to a final result. Here is a sample of relevant data, understanding that I have many more columns in my dataset.
Date | Call# | Time Started | Time Complete |
January 1, 2022 | 000 | 10:28 | 11:28 |
January 1, 2022 | 001 | 10:45 | 10:55 |
January 1, 2022 | 006 | 11:00 | 11:35 |
January 1, 2022 | 008 | 11:02 | 11:30 |

It would be nice to see this information in a Gantt type view but knowing how much time each day I had 1 vehicle out at a time, 2 vehicles out at a time, 3 vehicles out at a time, etc. would be great.
I have been able to produce something really clunky in 15 minute increments using Excel but I think its only half the solution. I would like to see if there’s a better way of doing this in Power BI.
Thanks in Advance
You can use the technique shown in this video to do that. Create a time table with your 15 min increment, do not create a relationship to it, and write a DAX measure that counts the numbers of rows where the time started is below the time value in context and the time completed is after.

Thanks for the Gantt suggestion, I will try it. Coming up with a total time value where I had 1 vehicle out, 2 vehicles out, etc. per day would be awesome. Any suggestions on how to accomplish that?
