Merge two line chart with different timeline

[abhi_kothekar]

I have a despatch plan from Jan to May & also the cash received data from Feb to Jun (Assuming 30 days credit period post despatch). Now in actual it has happened that some of the despatches of Apr month may get preponed and despatched in Feb. So the cash received for those items is at actual i.e. Desp Date + 30 Days. i.e. in Mar.  Now if I want to plot both the graphs on cumulative value the time scale is different for both the values. So how to show them under one chart

Month	Desp Plan	Cumulative Desp
Jan	20	20
Feb	15	35
Mar	30	65
Apr	25	90
May	10	100
TOTAL	100

Hi  @abhi_kothekar ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create calculated table.

Table2 =
CALENDAR(
    DATE(
        2023,1,1),
        DATE(
            2023,12,31))

2. Create calculated table.

True =
var _table1=
SUMMARIZE(
    'Table2','Table2'[Year],'Table2'[Month],
    "Cumulative1",
SUMX(
    FILTER(ALL('Table'),
    YEAR('Table'[Desp Plan])='Table2'[Year]&&
    MONTH('Table'[Desp Plan])='Table2'[Month]),[Planned Value]),
    "Cumulative2",
SUMX(
    FILTER(ALL('Table'),
    YEAR('Table'[Desp Actual])='Table2'[Year]&&
    MONTH('Table'[Desp Actual])='Table2'[Month]),[Desp value]))
var _table2=
ADDCOLUMNS(
    _table1,"Cumulative Plann",
    IF(
        [Cumulative1]=BLANK(),BLANK(),
    SUMX(FILTER(_table1,[Year]=[Year]&&[Month]<=EARLIER([Month])),[Cumulative1])))
return
ADDCOLUMNS(
    _table2,"Cumulative Desp",
     IF(
        [Cumulative2]=BLANK(),BLANK(),   
    SUMX(FILTER(_table1,[Year]=[Year]&&[Month]<=EARLIER([Month])),[Cumulative2])))

3. Result:

Description	Desp Plan	Planned Value	Desp Actual	Desp value
Assy 1	Jan-23	100	Jan-23	100
Assy 2	Jan-23	150	Mar-23	150
Assy 3	Feb-23	100	Feb-23	100
Assy 4	Mar-23	140	Feb-23	140
Assy 5	Mar-23	130	Apr-23	130
Assy 6	Apr-23	90	TBD
Assy 7	May-23	80	TBD
Assy 8	Jun-23	150	TBD
Assy 9	Jun-23	130	TBD
Assy 10	Jun-23	125	TBD

See the above table. Now I want to plot cumulative line graph for planned vs actual.
