How to display mutliple value for the same date

[Cydevos]

Hi everyone,

I have a line chart that display a count of result by date.
My problem is that sometime I have two results for the same date. They are different by a job id but same for the date. What power bi does is it sum the results for a date and at the end I get a weird line chart. I would like if there is two results in the same date to display the date twice on the chart.

Table examples:

name     result     job_id     date
aaa       pass       1             21st 2019

aaa       pass       2             21st 2019

aaa       fail         1             22nd 2019

aaa       pass       1             23rd 2019

I want this: 
Cout of result

|

|

|

|   val        val      val         val

_________________________________  date
   21st     21st      22nd     23rd

And not this:

Cout of result

|

|

|  val 

|              val          val

_________________________________  date
   21st     22nd     23rd

I hope this is clear. Tell me if you need more information.
Thank you very much for your help 🙂

Hi, @Cydevos 

After my research, you can try to achieve an approximate effect by adding a secondary column, the steps are as follows:

1. Create an index column and change the index column type to text;1
2. Create a new Custom column, use the formula: = "-" & [Index], and then delete the index column;23
3. Create a line chart and add the Custom field you just created to Axis, and you will see a hierarchy on the line chart;4
4. Select Expand all, the corresponding screen may be what you want, the result is as follows：5

Here is demo , please try it：

Hi !

Thanks for your reply and the time spent to try something 🙂 

I just tried it and it looks perfect. I will accept your answer as the solution ! 
Quick questions about your answer:
    1 - Why this "= "-" & [Index]" and not only the index ? 

    2 - How can I remove the display of the index on the "x" axis ?

Thanks

Hi  @Cydevos ,

For your question, I hope the following answers can be resolved:
1. This formula: = "-" & [Index]", just to visually distinguish better, you can also use only the index, but it may be visually confusing, you can also customize a formula that you feel better;
2. The chart will aggregate options with the same value, so the value of the x-axis must be unique to achieve the desired result. If the display of the index is removed, the ideal result will not be achieved.

Best Regards,

Joey
