Gantt chart???

Hey,

 

I would like to use PowerBI to create visualizations. That includes creating Gantt charts that are modifiable to manage projects. Any help?

 

bonus points for allowing me to use this in excel AND power points (and word! for full credit).

A Gantt chart is really nothing more than a stacked bar chart where the first series fill is clear.

 

I haven't tried this in PowerBI but it's fairly straightforward to do in Excel. I'll have to see if I can do this in Designer. See this article for the step by step instructions. https://support.office.com/en-au/article/Present-your-data-in-a-Gantt-chart-in-Excel-f8910ab4-ceda-4...

Hi Treb,

 

How did you go replicating this in designer?

 

Cheers
