Adding On-Premises Data Gateway in Power BI

Social Shares

In this blog, we’ll be seeing the use of the default tooltip in Power BI as we need to see the sales amount and quantity in a single chart. 

Plotting them in a clustered column chart shows that the sales amount is in thousands, but the quantity is in hundreds or even less than a hundred.

We cannot compare these kinds of values shown in the graph as the difference between their values is huge.

By default, we can see a tooltip when we hover over the bar of the clustered column chart as shown below.
