Consider a visual called Acterys Gantt chart. You can download from the visuals store. I like a lot.

RE: Create a Timeline custom visual to visualize MS Project tasks information

There appear to be a couple of similar ideas, some mentioning MS Project, others visualising a category according to date column but I think this visual would be useful for multiple cases. If I may I would like to add some suggestions 1) set the x axis scale on mix/max values plus some delta selected by the user (1 wk, 1month, 1 quarter). 2) Allow the user to select the markers used (line, point, custom, data driven) 3) Provide ability to customise the tooltip to include image url from data table

Something like http://visjs.org/timeline_examples.html would be a great way to visualize the data, e.g. having options to show data as time instances and also as time ranges.

MS Project has this nice feature called Timeline but there's no way to check the same way in Power BI.
