    Is there some indicator to uniquely indicate the 3 values?  I'm not sure this will be easy in Power BI. In Excel you could nest the date and the indicator on the x axis. In Power BI you may need to do the following

    1.  Concatonate the date and indicator in a calc colum

    2.  Create a sort order column for this calc column so it sorts as you want

    3 place the calc column on the x axis. 

     

    That is my my best guess

Dear Matt,

Thank you for your support.

I am not using any indicator as of now but i will work on the steps you suggested.

Don't you think this situation is something very common and we normally have many data which are collected on the same day and same time??

Thanks Again.

 

Regards

Ashok

I can't think of a reason I would want to see this in a chart the way you describe. Maybe I am missing something
