Create forecasting category label

[Anonymous]

Hi dear, 

As you can see in the below visual, we have different months (Legend) and different periods (Axis).

I would like to let all months in the legend start at period 1 so I can have only 5-6 periods in the axis as the forecast is based on 5-6 months only.

Example: March needs to start at period 1 instead of 2 and end in period 6 instead of 7. (this applies for all months)

Hi @Anonymous,

I think you need to use an unconnected date field as the axis of your chart, then you can use it with the original table legend field as the category of your chart.
After these steps, you can write a measure formula to use the current date value and legend to look up the value from raw table and add '+0' to your expression to expand the blank records.
