wrong dates displayy

Hello,

so I'm working on a big report including dates from 2016 and 2017,

for some reason the date hirrarchy mix dates from Q1 2016 and 2017.

I would like to present 5 Quarter, Q1 2016 Q2 2016 Q3 2016 Q4 2016 Q1 2017 - for all times the data is dynamic so the solution should be permanent.

 

please help

Hi @Noak,

 

I agree with BetterCallFrank's solution. Below is a sample about how to use it:

 

1. Add a calculate column to store the "quarter year".

 

Year-Quarter = CONCATENATE([Date].[Quarter]," "& [Date].[Year])

 

2. Drag the new column as the axis field and remove the original date column which in your visual.

@Noak

you have to add the year from the date hierarchy to X-axis - this will separate q1/16 from q1/17
