Hi,
I created a line chat and used the forecast feature.
I received an error (shown below) stating "empty values in data. To forecast, data cannot have empty values."
How would I go about correcting this issue within Power BI Desktop?
Thank you.
empty values in data
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @cubedweller,
Based on the error message, it seems that the value of X axis has the empty value, you should check if you have the empty value for Date.
I also made a test to reproduce your issue, it really caused by the empty date value which is not supported for forecast line.
Please complete your date value to correct the forecast line.
Best Regards,
Cherry
