Hi
Does anyone knows if it is possible to have data pairing on a line chart?
For example, with the data set as follows:
| Date | ProductID | Defective | Accepted |
| 1/3/2023 | 1 | 90 | 1000 |
| 1/3/2023 | 2 | 200 | 1200 |
| 1/3/2023 | 3 | 100 | 1500 |
| 1/3/2023 | 4 | 30 | 1500 |
| 2/3/20203 | 1 | 50 | 1300 |
| 2/3/20203 | 2 | 150 | 2300 |
| 2/3/20203 | 3 | 80 | 1600 |
| 2/3/20203 | 4 | 350 | 1800 |
| 3/3/2023 | 1 | 230 | 1900 |
| 3/3/2023 | 2 | 140 | 1400 |
| 3/3/2023 | 3 | 320 | 1500 |
| 3/3/2023 | 4 | 40 | 1200 |
I was trying to create a line chart with 4 sets of lines (one solid, one dotted) to represent each productid, with 2 lines each; one for defective and one for accepted.
With the date in the x-axis field, and productid in the Legend field, I am unable to add more than 1 column in the y-axis field; hence am unable to create the 8 lines I was hoping to.
Was hoping to get some help here in this channel.
Any guidence is greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

Hi @Anonymous ,
With the native line chart you can use the small multiples to open the chart per ProductID, as shown below:
Besides that, you have the "Advanced Line Chart" in the AppSource. Please find below how the free version looks like:
