wrong Month values showing

Hello Community,

 

i created a simple chart with Values for the Y axis and Month for the x axis.

The Month comes from our company calender and stretches from Jan2022 - Dec 2023

 

What i can not explain now is that it adds several additional "Months" in between (refer to image).

 

 

 

i double checked the values and the shown values for month do not exist in the table, i can not explain how they show up.

I also checked with different  Y axis values and it always shows the month as in the image.

 

Does anyone have any clue what is going on?

 

Best regards

  • baneworth  The Month column is numeric, and your axis is set to 'continuous'

     

     

    So it's showing all numbers in between (months only have 12, but that doesn't fit within base 10 numbering system).

     

    Either change your axis to categorical, or use "End of Month" column from your date table (if you have one) as that will be a 'Date' datatype instead of 'number' and will behave with base 12 month system you want 🙂
