Group Months in Bar Chart

‎10-04-2016 06:25 AM

I am looking to group months in a bar chart. I have 2014-2016 data and would like to see the Months together for YOY comparisons. Can't figure it out with any configurations I try as far as the Shared axis or Column series.

Have You tried creating a column called Year and entered that into the legend part?

The issue is the shared axis that has month as primary, they need to share the same year column

Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I am not given a date hierarchy when dragging the Month in. My data is an import, not a direct query, so it should have hierarchy, correct?
