Hello, i need help with axist label. I have a slicer that is showed by red circle. And, it's responsible to give me the right colunms on the graph. But, i need to change the number to text. Like, 1 to January. So, how can i do this without change the slicer, because this slicer is linked to other thing and every thing have number instead text.

Hello @rafaburba12 , 

 

Create new column using SWITCH command for the month names respectively where your new column DAX looks as below: 
Month Name = 
Switch (True(),
Column_name =1, "January",

Column_name =2,"February",

.

.

.

.

Column_name =12,"December",
Blank()
)

Then use this Month name column in the Xaxis of the Column Chart. Remember you may need to create sorting column if needed to sort months. 

 

If this post helps, then please consider accepting it as the solution to help other members find it more quickly. Thank You!!
