Hi Amanda or anyone who can help me!

 

I want to use a stacked area chart visualization with a total amount value vs. date axis. The problem is that when I apply a date axis , it only shows data for a minor total amount. My total is 40 thousand, and once applied the date it turns down to 16. This happens with different dates and it turns down different quantities.

 

How is that possible?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Anonymous ,

It could be any number of things if the numbers don't match up as you expect, depends on how the tabular data/schema is built as much as anything. Do you have a small data sample you could share to see if I (or anyone else for that matter) can replicate the problem with the same content? You can fudge the numbers/categories somewhat if there's any IP/data security concerns, thanks. (For example, rename the categories to Cat1, Cat2, Cat3 etc.)
