Hello,
I saw some solutions for similiar issue but my x-axis is a hierachy with Year and MonthID (for example. 2024-07, 2024-08, etc) with no date. Both of these are stored as text. I would like the formatting change to carry over when I drill up/down/expand hierachy please.
Area chart is summing as it goes to year and bar chart is averaging as it goes to year. Any formatting change is ok (different color/different line type/highlighting the background/etc) to show it isin (MonthID)/contains (Year) forecasted data in a future date.
Below is a sample of the data:
Year | Month | MonthID | does it have historical data? | To be graphed |
2024 | 05 | 2024-05 | yes | 10 |
2024 | 06 | 2024-06 | yes | 12 |
2024 | 07 | 2024-07 | yes | 13 |
2024 | 08 | 2024-08 | no | 11 |
... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
2025 | 02 | 2024-02 | no | 15 |
Thank you so much!
