@PSan1979 , I doubt this kind of display. Use expand and concat labels, if that can work. Reverse Square Y with Year Qtr and month on Axis
Hey @PSan1979 ,
you can achieve nested axis labels like this:
By adding the columns from your calendar table to the axis to form a hierarchy:
Disable the Concatenate labels property from the X axis formatting properties:
Exapnd the hierarchy of columns by using "Expand all ...", then sort the content of the visual:
First sort by axis labels instead of value:
Finally make sure the the labels are sorted ascending:
Hopefully, this is what you are looking for.

Follow the steps provided by @TomMartens and make sure the Year-Qtr and Year-Month columns are sorted with the relevant sort columns. Once you have inserted Year, Qtr-Year, Month-Year fields in the Axis, make sure to Turn-off CONCATENATE LABLE under Axis settings and importantly sort by axis column as the last step:
