Dear Experts
Once again I seek help of experts here with regard to the display unit for data labels.
I want the line to show in % but the column in Millions. Is that possible?
When I change my display unit to millions it will change my line as well.
Please take a look at my SS.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Yuiitsu ,
You could set unit in line and clustered column chart like below(you need to make sure you set this in Y-axis(column))
In addition , you said that "When I change my display unit to millions it will change my line as well", which part change? Please inform me in details.

Hi @Yuiitsu ,
Did you enable secondary axis?
Then slip Scroll Bar in this list, you should see it . What is your desktop version?

Thank you!
I did not thought of changing the display unit in Y-axis.
I changed in "Data Label" and this is what happened:
Hi @Yuiitsu ,
Yes, when you change unit in "Data Label", it will aplly to both line and column, this is by design. So I suggest you could change this in Y-axis, which should work.
In addition, you could change line unit in Y-axis(you will see in it Y-axis(line))

I have checked afew times, but I do not have Y-Axis(line) ....
Any idea why?
Hi @Yuiitsu ,
Did you use "Line and clustered column chart"? If so, when you add field in column and line, you could click Y-axis
Then when Y axis expand, you could slip Scroll Bar, then you will see it(because it have two y-axis, you could set them separately)

I did not click show secondary. Now I am able to do it.
Thank you for your patience in helping me thank you very much!!
I was actually checking into this earlier today on a different thread. I cannot find any way that you can independently control the data labels between columns and line.
Thank you for confirming!
