I have multiple lists that are related. I would like to produce a pie chart or column chart to display the number of programs by status and by program type. Status is a choice field. Program type is a number that is the ID column in a Services list. Here is a small portion of programs.
and this is Services
I saw an example of getting the choice field in and that seems ok, but the lookup gives me errors.
this is what I am using to get the full status text in my 'Items':
AddColumns(
Programs,
"Full Status",
Status.Value
)
In the result I can see the full status text value correctly.
What I'd like to do is show the number of programs in each status and by type.
I tried adding a column to the AddColumns using a Lookup, but it gives me errors and I tried a GroupBy to group by the status thinking i could do the lookup in the Series Legend.
I think I can plot this either as a pie chart or column chart, but could be wrong...not sure if the Items statement would be the same...
Can someone help?

Hi @leeguth ,
I made a sample for you.
SortByColumns(AddColumns(AddColumns(GroupBy(AddColumns(LIST12,"type",LookUp(LIST13,ID=ServiceID,Title)),"type","temp1"),"num1",CountRows(Filter(temp1,Status.Value="In Planning"))),"num2",CountRows(Filter(temp1,Status.Value="Active"))),"type")

Hi @leeguth ,
Let's say ServiceID is a number column.
I made a sample for you.
AddColumns(GroupBy(AddColumns(LIST12,"temp1",Status.Value),"temp1","temp2"),"num",CountRows(temp2))
AddColumns(GroupBy(AddColumns(LIST12,"temp1",LookUp(LIST13,ID=ServiceID,Title)),"temp1","temp2"),"num",CountRows(temp2))
AddColumns( GroupBy( AddColumns(LIST12,"temp1",LookUp(LIST13,ID=ServiceID,Title)&"/"&Status.Value),"temp1","temp2"),"num",CountRows(temp2))

Hi Wearsky,
Those did work, thanks, but not really producing what I was thinking. Now that I have played with it more, maybe a pie chart isn't the right option - or I'm not seeing how to specify it right. If I use a column chart as an example, what I want to present is a breakdown by the status of how many are in each type. This is a little like your last statement is doing...
What I think I need is the items to be like:
| Status | Type1 | Type 2 | Type 3 | Total |
| Planning | 2 | 1 | 0 | 3 |
| Active | 3 | 2 | 3 | 8 |
The 'Type' columns would be retrieved with a lookup for each type in the type list (I only show 3 but could end up with more later) and then counts by status would be retrieved. I included a total column, but it's probably not used.
I did this in Excel, but it would look similar to:
I was originally thinking a pie chart could show it too but I'm thinking now, it can't show all the breakdowns/sub counts. I thought I saw an example but now can't find it.
What I eventually want is for the user to click a bar and then be taken to a list filtered by the column (so type and status). I know how to do that, just need to show it right first.
This is probably just a matter of changing around the addColumns and groupBy, right?
Hi @leeguth ,

SortByColumns(AddColumns(AddColumns(GroupBy(AddColumns(LIST12,"type",LookUp(LIST13,ID=ServiceID,Title)),"type","temp1"),"num1",CountRows(Filter(temp1,Status.Value="In Planning"))),"num2",CountRows(Filter(temp1,Status.Value="Active"))),"type")

thanks again. I had tried a little after my reply, and before you responded, and did somewhat the same but swapped the axis. Since I may end up having many statuses and right now only 3 services, I grouped by status and had the columns be the types.
SortByColumns(AddColumns(
GroupBy(
AddColumns(
Programs,
"temp1",
LookUp(
Services,
ID = ServiceID,
Title
),
"tmpstatus",
Status.Value
),
"tmpstatus",
"temp2"
),
"Type 1",
CountRows(Filter(temp2,ServiceID=1)),
"Type 2",
CountRows(Filter(temp2,ServiceID=2)),
"Type 3",
CountRows(Filter(temp2,ServiceID=3))
),"tmpstatus")
now to figure out how to get the 'Series' if a user clicks on a particular bar...but I think I have a plan.
Thank you again!
