Horizontal Bar Chart and Overlaying Line Chart

I am using SSRS 2008 and developing my reports in BIDS.
I have a report with two data points. I want to chart the first as a bar (horizontal) chart and then the second as an overlaying line chart.
I created both data series, originally, as a bar chart. I have clicked on the second series in the "Drop Data Fields Here" area and changed the chart to a line chart. When I do that, it changes both series to a line chart.
However, if I use the column (vertical) chart for the first series, it will let me make the second one a line chart.
Is this a limitation of SSRS 2008? Can I not have one data point be the horizontal bar chart and the second one a line chart?
If so, are there any suggestions how to get around this?
Thanks.

Both charts for SSRS 2005/2008 are very limited when it comes to horizontal charts and are infact supporting only left-to-right bar charts, with no ability to combine them with other charting types (lines, areas, points etc.). For a SSRS charting solution that supports all types of charting type combinations in left-to-right and right-to-left horizontal fashion you can use Nevron Chart for SSRS - www.nevron.com. Besides a huge number of charting types and subtypes (most of which are not available in the MS Chart for SSRS 2008) it also provides better image quality in 2D and 3D modes, more settings, has support for rich text formatting in texts, has image filters, ability to customize via C# code and implements many more large and small charting related details.

How to combine a stacked bar chart and a line graph together in one report

I have a report in excel that has stacked bar chart and a line graph together in one report. I am trying to recreate the same in Webi, Is this possible? Did any one have similar requirement, could you please share the thoughts?
Thanks,

May be I don't understand correctly...
But if its really to separate chart area's;
just copy the datablock and format one as line and the other as barchart...
Hope this helps,

Will the Radio Charts and/or Billboard Charts ever be updated?

Will the Radio Charts and/or Billboard Charts ever be updated?
Looking at them right now - the radio charts seem to be stuck in time somewhere around last fall - October-ish if I can judge properly by the songs showing at the top of the stations' charts....
The Billboard charts - stop at 2004. Nothing at all for 2005, let alone anything for 2006.
Dare I ask if these will ever be updated again? What's the point in having them if they aren't going to be updated? Might as well dump 'em!

Same here, my iTunes Music Store does not provide any Billboard chart information after 2004.
To be perfectly honest, one of the reasons that I liked iTunes in the first place was the fact that it was easy to find good songs. I can't count how many times I have sat down to find some good songs, and so I try to go find last year's top songs... then I realize I can't even do that!
Frankly, it's very frustrating, because I have been a long time user of iTunes, so from my perspective, it feels like Apple used to provide a useful feature, but that now they have taken it away.
The most annoying thing about this is that I have SEARCHED for an explanation, and I can't find one. I have searched the iTunes help system, and I have searched the Support website, and I am getting zero results for Billboard and charts.
At this point, I just want to know WHY. Is it:
(1) Apple is no longer able to show Billboard chart information for 2005+? (And if so, are they working on getting this information, or have they just given up?)
(2) Apple just hasn't gotten around to adding this information? (And if so, what's the ETA? They're over a year behind! If they're low on resources, then heck, I'll do the work FOR them for free!)
(3) Some other explanation?

Line chart and vertical line repeats according period

Hej,
I have line chart and horizontal axis displays many months, thus is possible to vertical line from horizontal axis be displayed after years period and be color diferent?? My example, start displays January 2007,......finish December2007->DISPLAY VERTICAL LINE as LONG TICK, start January2008....and so on... is possible to set such repeater for line chart...thank for response.

Hi 1234alex,
According to your description, you want to create a non-vertical target line in top of bar chart to show different target.
In Reporting Services, it’s impossible to create a non-vertical target line in top of bar chart. Because StripLines can only return a vertical target line even we put expression to make it dynamically . In this scenario, we can show the target line as values
and use switch() function to specify different values based on different category. Then we just need to change the chart type for that series only. However, it only support horizontal line chart type in Reporting Services, so we suggest you use column chart
instead of bar chart. Please refer to detail steps below:
1. On Chart Data region, set an expression looks like:
     =switch(Fields!month.value=”A”,”4”,
     Fields!month.value=”B”,”8”,
     Fields!month.value=”C”,”2”,
     Fields!month.value=”D”,”5”)
2. Right click expression in Chart Data region, choose Change Chart type, select a line chart.
3. Click Preview, the results look like:
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Bar of Pie Chart and Age Population Chart ?

Hi,
I've got the last version of numbers and I'am asked for an assignement to do a Bar of Pie Chart and an Age Population Chart.
I tried everything and searched on the internet but couldn't manage to find what I'm looking for.
Could anyone explain how to do those ?
Thanks

Hi Vic,
So "Bar of Pie" wasn't a typo! Looks like Jerry (and I) had a different interpretation of what you were trying to do.
What you have there is two separate charts, using two separate (but related) sets of Data.
The Pie chart uses the data listed on the table to the left below—individual numbers for the pets whose count is three or greater, and a grouped count for the others.
The Stacked Bar chart uses a separate data set, listed on the second table—the individual counts for those pets represented fewer than three times each.
Here's a variation.
Charts are using the default colours as assigned by Numbers.
See the Numbers '09 User Guide for details on reformatting the charts.

SSAS2008 r2 and Excel Line Chart and Date Axis

Hi
Excel 2010. SSAS 2008 R2
I have a excel line chart made out from SSAS pivot table with a date dimension (date) and No of licences.
Currently, it displays 1/Jun/2014 to 30/Jun/2015 (FY2015) and this looks really ugly.
While keeping the details, I'd like to display by Month-Year.
However, while I can do this with other normal excel data, I just can not do it with SSAS Pivot table.
Under Axis options, I ticked 'Date axis' but it won't bring up date options.
I think I tried everything but just can not figure it out. I wonder if it is even possible.
Th date dimension is recognised as date because I can apply date filter. I want to make it neat. Can anyone help me with this please?
It must be 'Date' Level.
Kind regards

Hi SQLMa,
Could you please elaborate more detail regarding the "Date" dimension structure? In order to display the date format with Month-Year, we should build a hierarchy to organize the granularity of date dimension at SSAS level. Please
refer to the documents below:
Create a Date type Dimension:

Different sort order with line chart and stacked column chart

Hi,
I have a problem with sorting within flash charts.
The chart should be ordered by a date column.
If I'm using a line chart everything is fine. The columns in the chart are in the same order as returned by the query.
If I change the chart type to stacked column chart, I get a wrong order.
It is orderd like 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1, 2, 3, 4.
What's wrong?
Here the query i use:
SELECT NULL AS link,
TO_CHAR (zeitpunkt, 'dd.mm.yyyy'),
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI06E', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI06E",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI06T', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI06T",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI14S', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI14S",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI14T', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI14T",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI16T', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI16T",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI24K', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI24K",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'TI33T', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "TI33T",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'WF03E', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "WF03E",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'WF03K', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "WF03K",

MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'WF06T', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "WF06T",
MAX (DECODE (db_sid, 'WF07K', VALUE, NULL)) OVER (PARTITION BY zeitpunkt) AS "WF07K",

FROM db_performance_temp
ORDER BY zeitpunkt ASC
SQL> desc db_performance_temp
Name Null? Typ
ZEITPUNKT DATE
DB_SID VARCHAR2(30)
VALUE NUMBER

I found the solution.
Anychart seems to have a problem with null values!
The corrupted sorting only occured for a specific set of search criteria and a specific day. At this day some values have been null.
I added a "nvl( [...], 0) for every value.
No I get a correct sort order.

Is there a way to display the legend for a chart, but not the chart?

Hi,
I have a stacked column chart and a line chart on top of each other. I can't use the legend for the stacked column chart because the data will change from month to month, and the 2 charts will not be aligned. I copied the stacked column chart to another part of the canvas and want to display only the legend, but the chart is still displaying. Is there a way to prevent the chart from displaying? Thanks.

hi Jim Wojewnik,
we can show only the legend in a pie chart by dragging the edges to closer.do the following,
select the pie chart,select the edge of the chart and make it small and u ll find the pie chart shrinking.make it lean such that the pie chart disappear.
try this work around and let me know.

Stacked Bar chart and Line graphs

I have a report in Crystal which has stacked bar chart and a line graph together in one report.
Is it possible to do the same thing in WebI . Can anybody share the experience.

Today you can only have a simple bar (not stacked) and line chart in Web Intelligence. We are looking to improve charts in the future. In the meantime you can look into the masher from the labs...

Xcelsius Drill Down With Column and Line Chart

Hi Guys,
I am working on an Xcelsius 2008 Dashboard. I would like to integrate two charts, a column and a line chart. The column chart is supposed to show the results for each quarter. With a selector it changes the view and name of the different numbers.
Then I would like to enable the drill down so that I can see the results for the three months of the corresponding quarter in the line chart. Is that somehow possible? I am totally lost. Thanks for your help.
Kind Regards,
Maurice

Hi Maurice,
You cannot integrate a column chart and line chart to make drill down possible. You could drill down a column chart to show the values in another chart bt that would be just two different charts and not an integrated one.

I want to make a simple line chart

i want to make a simple line chart using the data in two nonadjacent columns.
it seems that the easiest way to do this is to export the sheet to google docs and use THEIR charting, which is a two-click deal.
is there an easy way to do this in numbers?
my impression:
numbers:
very fancy, super pretty, easy to modify APPEARANCE, difficult to use actual charts. custom paint job on a junker
googledocs:
available everywhere, basic, more difficult with actual data flexibility, but you can use what you've got.
the whole emphasis on numbers seems to be how pretty i can make displays, but not a lot of emphasis on making it easy to make things work.
can anyone shed some light on how to make this simple instead of pretty?

You can definitely use the technique I mentioned to order the columns to make it easy to chart:
Here I created a table (the top one) to hold the original data and make a second table (the lower one) to pull data into two adjacent columns:
The bottom table, as I said pulls data from the top data table:
Then highlight the data in the table to chart, and selec the chart type from the menu (I suggest the bar chart which is the first item in the chart tool menu):
I made up this data and mean it to be no reflection on your running ability

Legend does not display with Line Chart

I have a query that I wrote with Bex Query Designer v3.5.11 for a BW 3.5 system. When I click Graphical Display tab in the query results, "Column Chart" shows a legend, showing which colors mean what. However, when I switch to a different type of chart, such as Line Chart, Legend does not appear. Anyone know how to make this appear? without the legend, the chart isn't very useful.

You can create a Web Template, Drag a Chart.
1) Assign a query to the chart
2) Right click over the Chart and select Edit Chart
3) Select Chart Designer.
4) Look for "Series" in the Overview Window
5) Expand the Series.
6) Activate the checkbox "Show Labels" on all the
series that you want to have values.

ORDER BY in line chart with more than 1 lines

Hello,
I created a line chart and added 3 chart rows. The x-axis shows the calendar week, which should be ordered.
It works perfectly with only one row, but if I add a 2nd or a 3rd row and execute it, the chart shows nothing and stays blank.
If I delete the "ORDER BY KW" for each row the x-axis is mixed up.
Here is my SQL:
select null link, KW label, SUM(SNDG) value
from "TBL_FB_SNDG_FRTTR"
WHERE SEND_KZ = 'Z'
group by KW
order by KW
Can anybody help me?
Thanks so much,
LISA

I found a solution:
- create a VIEW which is ORDER BY KW
- use this VIEW instead of the table for the chart
- remove the GROUP BY
Now the SQL:
select null link, KW label, SNDG value
from "VIEW_FB_FTTR_SNDG"
WHERE SEND_KZ = 'Z'
Before I tried it by using the GROUP BY and it did not work ... why it works without it - I don't know. ;-)
Greetings,
LISA :-)
