To provide some context, I have to fields 'Order Errors' and 'Line Errors' with the columns having example entries such as
Order Errors:
- Sales Order 1
- Sales Order 2
- Sales Order 3
Line Errors:
- 2 Line Items
- 5 Line Items
- 2 Line Items
- 1 Line Item
I've tried making a new parameter that would help filter in between, but for some reason the parameter forces me to place it on an X-axis when building out any graphs. The ideal visual I'd want for it to look like would be the X-axis being the Name and the Y-axis being counts of order and line error when I filter to the desired selection. Is there something I'm missing in parameters that would allow me to do so, or is there another solution I can use to achieve this? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Hi, @Tummi ;
According to your description, you could try Field Parameter .Field Parameters allow you to dynamically change the measure being analysed within a report.

So I originally used the field parameters as you suggested and this was the issue I've been running into with the pictures provided below. For some reason my parameters are not being visualized whenever I try to place them in the y-axis. I'm wanting to display the x-axis showing names while the y axis indicating the values of order and line errors.
Would there be any other thing I'm missing with this?
