Hi, i have a table with column for quarter and year (just like the sample Report - Company Sales).
now, i'm trying to create a chart which shows the quarter as the series group /x-axis... how can i show the label of the quarter and the year. currently, it can only use either year or quarter.
so, what i want the x-axis label to be like this:
e.g. Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4
2003 2004If you want the quarter to show up on the x-axis, then it has to be a
category group, not a series group. Just use two category groupings (one for
quarter, one for year) and you should get the desired labels.

i need to differentiate between the first q1 and the second q1. I can only put on field for the 'label'. if i leave it blank, it will only show it by the quarter.
