Power BI Funnel Chart

Power BI Funnel Chart is very useful to display the data in stages. For example, we can use this Funnel Chart to visualize the Cost of a Product at each stage in-detail. In this article we will show you, How to Create a Funnel Chart in Power BI with example.

For this demonstration we are going to use the SQL Data Source that we created in our previous article. So, Please refer Connect Power BI to SQL Server article to understand the Data Source.

How to Create a Power BI Funnel Chart

First, click on the Funnel Chart under the Visualization section. This will automatically create a Funnel Chart with dummy data as shown in below screenshot.

In order to add data to Funnel Chart, we have to add required fields:

• Group: Please specify the Column that displays the stages.
• Values: Any Numeric value such as sales amount, Total Sales, Customer count etc.

Let me drag and drop the Sales Amount from Fields section to Values field.

Next, add English Product Name from DimProduct table to the group section. You can do this by dragging Product Name to Group section, or simply check mark the Product Name column

Now you can see the Funnel Chart for Sales Amount of each product. Hover over any box will show you the Tool-tip of Product Name and its Sales Amount
