Hi There,
I am trying to build a Graph in Report Builder 2008 R2 that has bars showing actual values and actual dates with dates on the X Axis and Values on the Y Axis. This part is working fine. Now on this graph, i have to show the line which depicts the targets.
Say for example, I have a target defined from Jan 1 2013 to June 1 2013 with a value of 5, then i have another target defined say from August 1 2013 to December 31, 2013 with Value of 7.
Now suppose we have actual values and actual dates as follows:
3 on Jan 15, 2013,
10 on March 10, 2013,
6 on July 1 2013,
2 on September 5, 2013,
5 on November 1 2013 and so on.
So bars are drawn for actual values and actual dates properly.
But for the target range i am not able to draw the line across the graph properly which shows the targets so that we can see if actual values met the targets or not. basically I need to be able to draw a line, taking the example above, from jan 1 - june 1 with the value of 5 and then from august 1 to dec 1 with the value of 7, and no line between june 1 and august 1.
My dataset looks as follows:
Actual Date, Actual Value, Target Start Date, Target End Date, Target Value
but i am not able to draw the desired graph with about dateset
I even tried to create 2 datasets, one with Actual date and actual value and another with target date, target value with target start date and target value in one row then target end date and target value in second row and so on, something like this:
Target Date Target Value
Jan 1 2013 5
June 1 2013 5
August 1 2013 7
December 31 2013 7
but I am not able to draw graph with 2 datasets in the same data region.
I was wondering if someone can help me out with this graph.
Thanks, MiniJ
