I am using the version 4.3.2. My requirement is to have 2 levels of labels as highlighted in the attached image. I need similar grouping of label repeated in Y axis too for a separate chart.
A label for each bar and then group the labels.

How to creat a grouped stacked bar chart

Hi,
I am trying to create a grouped stacked bar chart.
For 'on change of ' i have -> 1) update_month
2) update_source ( i have 2 values for this field -> website and ivr)
And for 'show value' field i am trying to use 1) sum of valid_count
2) sum of invalid_count
-> I need two stacked bars for each month, each stacked bar belongs to either website or ivr and is made of valid and invalid counts for that particular update source.
when i tried to use the fields as i mentioned above, i got an error saying
'The data you have selected doesnt fit the chart type' and explanation is as follows 'This chart type requires 2 on change of fields and i show value field OR 1 on change of field and many show value fields'.
I have selected a stacked bar chart.
Does any one know how to do this?
i am trying to create a chart similar to the one in the following link http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Chart/JFreeChartStackedBarChartDemo4.htm
Thanks

Display of Month and year in Y-axis of horizontal bar chart

Hi,
We are using Webi XI R2 version. Could you please let me know how we can display date in chart. I am having objects as Month name (July, Aug etc) and year (2009). I want to display on the Y-axis as Jul-09, Aug-09
Please advise.
Kindly let me know if any further information is required on the same.
Thanks in advance,
Eswar

Hi,
Now I understand your problem a little bit better.
If you do not have a measure you could try and create one.
One that comes to mind that will be usefull here is the number of days till task finish.
Use either the
DaysBetween(CurrDate();[task_end_date])
, which will change as the report gets older.
or the refresh date of dataprovider, which will stay as it was after refresh.
However I'm not sure that will get you the exact layout you are looking for.
Since normally that number of days will then go on the y-axis, not the task end date.
You could try a few chart options with the ending month as a dimension on the y-axis.
Or ask the users if they can live with this different indication of how long it will take till a task finishes.
Hope this helps,
Marianne

Display ISO week number instead of date on x axis in Bar Chart

Hi,
I've created a simple SSRS report based on bar chart that shows several milestones. Everything works fine for me except I’m not able to convert the date into ISO week number format.
I played around with different approaches. I was able to convert the date into an ISO week Format directly on the SQL Server. That
wasn't a problem.
But unfortunately I’m not able to display the week number on the horizontal axis in my Bar Chart. I tried both fields: TaskFinishDate and TaskFinishDateMS...
I would like to show the ISO week number instead of the date within the Bar Chart on the horizontal axis.
Any ideas/hints/help is really appreciated!
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
Per my understanding that you want to get the week number of the year based on the field "TaskFinishDate" which is datetime type and display the week number in the x-axis instead of the field "TaskFinishDate", right?
I have check the snapshot you have provided and it seems you have change the format of the datetime field in the x-axis like "dd.MM.YYYY", If you can't make the week number to display correctly in the x-axis, the issue can be caused by you haven't
change the format to Number in the category.
Details information below for you reference:
I assume you have use expression in the Label like below to convert the datatime TaskFinishDate in to ISO week number like below:
=DatePart(DateInterval.WeekOfYear,Fields!TaskFinishDate.Value）
or
=DatePart("ww",Fields!TaskFinishDate.Value）
Right click the X-axis and select the "Horizontal Axis Properties", then click the Number to change the format to "Number" as below:
Preview you will get the weeknumber display in the x-axis correctly.
If you still have any problem, please feel to ask.

How to color the bars(sub-category) of a group(X-axis) in a Bar Graph?

Hi,
I have 3 columns in a graph(10g) - CLLI,SVRTY,TOTAL
CLLI -Varchar2
SVRTY -Varchar2
Total -Number
X-axis
Groups: CLLI
Bars : SVRTY
Y-axis : Total
Now each CLLI can have 3 values of SVRTY like CR, MJ, MN
Question) How can I change the color of each bar(SVRTY) in a group(CLLI) to indicate a particular condition?.
Example:
if SVRTY = CR, then bar color is RED
if SVRTY = MJ, then bar color is ORANGE
if SVRTY = MN, then bar color is YELLOW
X-Axis is CLLI and each CLLI can have 3 sub-groups(SVRTY) values like CR,MJ,MN
Thanks

Hi,
I was able to solve this issue using colorMode="COLOR_BY_SERIES".
I have another issue however.
If SVRTY of a group(CLLI) is say CR,MJ,MN then I get all the 3 bars in different colors for a single CLLI.
i,e :It uses the following series:
<Series id="0" color="#NNNN"> ---> This may be mapped to CR(RED)
<Series id="1" color="#MMM"> ---> This may be mapped to MJ(ORANGE)
<Series id="2" color="#TTTT"> ---> This may be mapped to MN(YELLOW)
However if SVRTY of a group(CLLI) is say only "MN" then I get the color of the bar as defined in Series id="0", which may be RED. I need it to be YELLOW.
Question) Is there anyway to control the color of a bar in a group to match a particular condition/value?.
Example: if SVRTY value is MN, then it should always be YELLOW. Right now it's talking the 1st color defined in <Series id="0" color=#NNNN">
Thanks

Y axis errors for apex 4.0 bar chart

I created a 2d stacking bar chart for the following query. The chart shows 1 1 2 2 3 on the y axis of the bar chart.
This strikes me as wrong. It appears Apex does not like doing charts for small values. :)
select null link, 1 time, 1 "sts1", 1 "sts2" from dual
union
select null link, 2 time, 0 "sts1", 2 "sts2" from dual
union
select null link, 3 time, 1 "sts1", 0 "sts2" from dual
If I change even one of the values to 5, then everything works fine.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Any thoughts such as "don't use labels" not appreciated so much.

I know this is a really old question but ...
I thought I'd provide a little insight since I had the same problem. If, as in the case described, the values are specified to have 0 decimal places, and the range of the data is, say, between 0 and a small number then the Y scale/range may be 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, ... But at 1 decimal place, these may display (truncated?/rounded) as 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, ...
The easy solution would be to specify 1 (or more) decimal places in the chart. However, the easy solution has other effects. My stacked bar chart was very dense with only enough room (enough width in the bar) to show a single digit for the Values. This became unreadable when the value 1 (one) was replaced by 1.2 and 2 by 2.3 as the displayed value was wider than the bar and they all ran together. So I unchecked to display Values. (Why couldn't the values display staggered like labels do so they they don't overlap?)
So even though, I had intended to display "values," I had to give that up when I specified additional decimals in the labels.

SSRS Bar Chart grouping date series into Months, setting scaler start and end ranges

I've been trying to solve this issue for a few days now without writing a sql script to create a "blank" for all of missing data points so that I get a bar for each month. I have date series (by day) data points grouped by two items
that creates a set of bar charts. EG: one chart per product in the tablix detail grouped to site level.
My issue is I would like the start and end of the charts to be the same for all charts and the only way I get it to work is with a chart that continues to show each date on the chart.
EG:
I have the graph start and end points set and scaling by month as I would like but each bar is a day instead of aggregating to a month level. My issue I hope to find a workaround for is if I go to Category Groups and define the grouping
to group with a year and month function the series is no longer treated as date data and I cannot control scaling. It works fine if all months have activity, but I can't figure out how to always have all charts start at "May 2012" in this example.
The only start and end point that I've been able to get to work once doing this are integer based, eg normal start would be 1 for each graph, but 1 doesn't equate to the same month from chart to chart.
I hope SSRS can provide the solution. I do know I can write a query that creates a ZERO value for each month/product/site but I don't want to leave the client with a query like that to support.
-cybertosis

Hi cybertosis,
If I understand correctly, you want to display all month category label in the X-Axis. You have configure the Scalar Axis, however, it cannot display the requirement format.
In your case, if we want the specific data format, we can configure Number property to set the corresponding Category data format. Please refer to the following steps:
Right click the X-Axis, select Horizontal Axis Properties.
Click Number in the left pane. Click Date option in the Category dialog box.
Then, select Jan 2000 option.
Please refer to the following screenshot below:
If there are any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

Stacked bar chart with single group

Post Author: rt50896
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Dear all,   I have a question about stacked bar chart with one group value(normally more than one group value is ok)   ex. YYYYMM      PRODUCT    AMT        -
        200601          ABC            1000        200602          ABC              300        200603          ABC              500       .....   the data collection is as above,then chart display: x-axis as YYYYMM,y-axis as PRODUCT...   but why this case the bar chart color not the same for each YYYYMM? and legend not display one PRODUCT as ABC only?   the bar chart display like this:   http://tkfiles.storage.live.com/y1po30C7CH6eW9phoLAXH89MBGwFLYdEZ3kOMQXUQzDzwM-VNnffibEwqPI8TIUNBm1f7uKTjnkaOI   ps. crystal report version is 8.5Regina

Thanks, Jeff. I did try this but for whatever reason it doesn't make a difference. I think it is because if there's no data for a given series for a certain week, there is no entry in the data set that is sent to AnyChart.
I was able to get around the issue by "filling in" the missing weeks from each data series. To generate the list of "Week Of" dates for a given date range, I used this code:
select
     trunc (each_day) as week_of,
     0 as effort
from (
     select
          (to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 2 - to_char(to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format),'D') - 1) + level each_day
     from dual
     connect by level <= to_date(:p920_end_date,:app_date_format) - to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 1
where
     to_char (each_day, 'D') = '2'This creates an effort entry of 0 for each week within the date range; I use the Monday date of a week as the "Week Of" date. I then union this with my actual data and summarize by week and viola, I get the weeks in order. This also has the benefit of showing a week for which there are no entries in any of the three series.
Thanks for taking a look at this.

Bar chart with current date in X axis

Hello
I have attached a vi that I hoipe somebody can help with.
If you look at the vi, there are two bars showing.
1.How can I attach the current date to the X axis.
For instance.....suppose the first bar (far left) was produced with data from yesterday...then the X axis would indicate yesterdays date.
The next bar was produced from data obtained today, so would show todays date.....etc
An array of dates is not suitable, as no prior date knowledge is assumed......just the current date when the bar was graphed.
2. Can the date be vertical....or even fancier....on a 45 degree slope, upwards and to the right
Thank you and best regards
Ray
Solved!

Hi, this will plot what ever data you got with the current date on the X Axis. But remember that since this is a graph, any new value plotted will erase the previous one. Dont have LabVIEW 9 otherwise would have checked your VI out. This plots each value with the current date.
LabVIEW 8.2,8.6,2009...still learning

Stacked bar chart x axis crunching up

CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
I have purchased Crystal Xcelsius Workgroup 4.5. I have created a dashboard in which I have used webservices call to get data from database.
One of the three charts of my dashboard is a stacked bar chart. Now my problem is, when the webservice gets data and refresh the chart, the x-axis of it becomes squeezed and the main chart becomes very small. It becomes so in runtime. However in design mode i didnt notice such behavior.
But same flash file s showing fine when I am using it somewhere else.

Is there a way to allow text wrapping on the outside (parent) group label IN SSRS Bar chart?

Hi,
I am using SSRS 2012. I have a series of charts that have multiple category groups. When I preview the chart, everything looks great unless the category group label is too long. In that case it just gets cut off. I've tried allowing
"wrapped text", changed interval values,font size for Y AXIS but that seems to only affect the inside (child) category group. Is there a way to allow text wrapping on the outside (parent) group label?
I am expecting AREA VIII BUT it shows AR on y axis.
I need to fix it asap.

Hi Sukhjeet.BI,
Actually, I can reproduced the issue in my local Reporting Services environment. If there are multiple category groups on the chart, the child category can be wrapped, but the parent category would be truncated. Based on my research, this behavior looks
like by design. Usually, the best practice is to limiting label length and number of items, use a smaller size label font or enlarge the chart size to get the chart to display properly.
If you have any concerns about this in Reporting Service, I would suggest you submitting a wish at

Break for Horizontal Axis Labels in OBIEE 11g Bar Chart

Hi all,
I have a vertical bar chart created in OBIEE 11g. The horizontal axis (x-axis) is a compound of Scenario, Year, and Month. The chart width is already long enough so it cannot be made any longer.
The chart looks like this (the label of horizontal axis is staggered):
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
Actual Feb 2012____________Actual Apr 2012
___________Actual Mar 2012_____________Actual May 2012
How can I force the labels for the horizontal axis to be broken into 2 lines (or even 3 lines), so that it will look like this:
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___Actual________Actual________Actual________Actual
__Feb 2012_____Mar 2012_____Apr 2012______May 2012
Any advice? Thanks a lot!

Hi Stewart,
I could not try this yet, but how about 'Enabling the Contains HTML Markup' for the columns for Heading and including a '</br>' tag at the end of the name.
Ex: Column - >Properties -> column Format -> Column Heading -> Enable Contains HTML Markup -> Column Heading's suffix =less than symbol /br greater than symbol (Oracle forums is even break the line too!! ;) So included the text)
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar
