    Hi tristanweeks47 

     

    You can add a custom column in the "account" table with below M code to have "YYYYMM" format YearMonth values from [Date Closed] column. Apply the change to Power BI Desktop. Then use this new YearMonth column on X-axis of the column chart to replace the current Date Closed column. 

    Date.Year([Date Closed])*100+Date.Month([Date Closed])
