Line chart, multiple series, dynamic naming

Is it possible to have a line chart with multiple series and dynamic naming?

What I want to create is something like this where I show the last 3 years of data:

Skärmklipp.PNG

But if I do like this I only get hardcoded name for the years:

Skärmklipp2.PNG

So when 2019 starts, the labels will not get updated.

And since I can't use formulas as series name, is there any way I can achieve what I want?

 

Regards

Jesper

Could you not create the 3 year line chart in qlik and bring the chart in as an image.

Or

Bring your data in as year, month, value table rather than as a cross tab.

Hi Jesper,

how about:

  • exporting data as a table in a format wher your year is regular dimension
  • creating a excel table (Insert -> Table)
  • use created table to be a source for your PIVOT CHART
  • set refresh chart on open document

This will not be possible with PPT template and will work only in Excel or you could build custom solution in Pixel Perfect template

 

hope this helps

Cheers

Hi,

 

Please specify the type of template you are creating. In this case it is not clear if it is an Excel or a PowerPoint with native charts.

In PixelPerfect you can use auto-generated series.
