Bar Chart Axis X Issue

I have a report that shows the data by weeks. But when I publish it, the X axis change the data and I cannot fix it. 

This is my report in Desktop : X Axis shows weeks correctly 

Desktop

And this is my report in Service. X Axis changes and I don't know why

 

Service

@Anonymous Can't say why this is happening, but if you check in the Service under Format - > x-axis -> Type

I think for some reason the Service is changing the type to Continuous for some reason with numeric values. You have to change that to Catagorical and that should change it back to the way it displays in the Desktop.

 

(This appears to be that scenerio)

@Anonymous Can you re-upload your images, neither of them are displaying. You need to wait till the white circles disappear when uploading to ensure the image is added to the post.
