trend chart expression error

Hi,

I'm creating a trend chart, and have 5 months as the dimension. For the expression, I'm trying to find the amount of open or closed incidents, given by the variable "[Incident Status]" and only looking at the closed or open ones. I am using "Count([Incident Status])" to try to get the values, but it is giving me the count total and placing it for each month. How can I get the count of the incidents for that month to show. Thank you.

Hi Daniel,

Tough to answer without seeing your data, can you attach an example? If it's giving you the total over 5 months in each month, it sounds like your dates aren't linked properly. Are you using an island calendar? If this were the case, you'd need something like this:

sum(if (IslandDate = DateField, [Incident Status]))

If Incident Status is a variable, that is the reason. You didn't say how Incident Status is defined. I think you might want to create and Incident Status field in script. When you use that field in the expression, the chart should aggregate the count for the months.
