Clustered column chart with non-contiguous date data

Hi everyone,
I wanted to create expense report clustered column chart with Y-axis showing Sum of Amount (including native overlap Sum Amount from same period last year) and X-axis to shown in time period with format YYYY-MM. The data itself contain expense category and non-contiguous data.  there are 2 problems here:

a. when it shows total expense in all category selected, the X-axis not in ascended sequence.

b. when some category selected, the chart expect to show all months within a year, and for months that has no data, to sum it as zero. problem is since not all data available each month. hence it only show the sum of available data.
