@Aman-K , Assume you have column in the for dd-MMM

 

Create a new column using the date

date sort = format([Date], "MMDD")

 

mark the new column as a sort column of your column and sort visual on your column

That's great . Thanks @amitchandak . Very useful video indeed . As you can see the expected graph in my previous post , it's showing 6months on x axis (showing each month (dd mmm) ) but the graph I created it has mm yyyy . If I put Day Month column on X axis then it shows all days of the month for each month . How can I have same x axis as the expected graph (2nd one in above post) . 
thanks 

@amitchandak - I have added a date sort column as below:

This is how my chart looks like at the moment (without adding date sort column on any axis)

How can I change my graph to look as below and to sort using "date sort" column and to display each month on x axis as below:

I have a table named "AllIssues" as below and there is Many to one relationship between "IssueDateCreated" in "AllIssues" table and "Date" column in "WeeklReport" table as below. Do I need to add any column or relationship to make it work?

WeeklyReport table :
