Date axis
Hey
Hopefully very quick and easy question.
I'm setting some graphs over time up, however the date axis acting differently.
Ideally I need the date to go
August 23
September 23
October 23 etc
However when I bring the hierarchy in it displays year some of the time, and others the ideal output the other.
Has anyone got any clues as to how to consistently get the ideal output every time.
If you want that date format create a calc column, to have such a format. Make sure the date axis is set to categorical.
Custom Date Format = FORMAT ( 'table'[date column], "mmmm yy" )Custom Date Format sort = FORMAT ( 'table'[date column], "yyyymm" )The first calc column will be sorted alphabetically so you'll need another column to sort it by.
