Hi everyone,
Hopefully a simple request for help. I was able to get it to work once and now I cannot so I feel like I am missing something.
What I want to do:
I take a sample of data every month. I want to take that sample and place it in BI and then use the forecast analytics to project seasonal and linear trending.
I was able to do this previous but now I cannot. Whenever I attempt to just display the data it either adds up the data in the column or it doesn't understand the data is linear and does not connect the dots in a line chart.
Here is the format of the data that worked the first time.
