Month name from January to December

piyush_s11 — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 04:11:35 GMT

Hi, I have a chart in which I have to show the data from the month of January to selected month.

My problem is my chart shows the months as expected however it starts from month of April. Actually, It should start from January as per calendar.

Please find attached screenshot & qvw file for reference.

Sort it by Numerical value by Ascending order.

Thanks,

Hi Piyush,

Create this inline table in your script and Map your Month field with this table.

Month_1:
Load * INLINE [
MonthName, Month
Jan,1
Feb,2
Mar,3
Apr,4
May,5
Jun,6
Jul,7
Aug,8
Sep,9
Oct,10
Nov,11
Dec,12
];

It is better first create a separate field in your data model by concatenate 'Month' and 'Year' like MonthYear (Apr 2018, May 2018, Jun 2018 etc) and use that field in your chart.

After this in your chart-> go to Sort -> Sort by Expression (Ascending) =num(Month) and Numeric Value (Ascending)

Try this!

Rest of other charts it's showing in correct order.

Try this..

Dimension =Date(MakeDate(Year, Month, 1),'MMM YYYY')

and sort tab use default settings..
