Graph Date on x-axis when column headers are dates

I have an expense/budget table where descriptions are listed by column and yearly/monthly actual, forecast and budgeted financial information as headers as shown below:

RegionTeamProjectFY23 Actual202301FY24 Actual202401....
JapanTeam 1Project 210050200100 
USATeam 2Project 12007040060 

and so on... the column headers continue on for each month for the fiscal year. The values in each yearly/monthly column is a financial value.

I'm trying to graph and create visuals where the x-axis would represent said years / months and the financial sum / calculations are plotted as Y value. 

Is there a way to do this?

Apologies if this is solved somewhere else but any direction would be greatly appreciated!

    in pq ,select the first 3 column and unpivot others. then all the date data will be in one column

     

    not sure what's the expected output based on the sample data you provided. Hope this can help to point the right direction for you.
