Representing non-numerical values on a graph

Hi,

 

I have a table that are representing a relationship between non-numerical values:

 

ReportnumberRelated Reportnumer
Y22-123Y20-001
......

 

From other tables I can get a date when this report was generated. I would like to create a graph where:

  • X-axis: date when report was generated
  • Y-axis: A series where all relatedreportnumbers are connected (non numeric values)

Do you have any tips on how to achive this sort of graph?

 

Best Regards

Andreas

Do you have any suggestions for how I can build a series with relatedreportnumbers?

 

Reportnumber   Related Reportnumer
Y22-123Y21-321
Y21-321Y21-268
Y21-268Y19-123

 

Outcome should be as the graph in my question.
