Column / Bar graphs with series name as categories in horizontal / vertical axis

Options

Dear Community,

I'm trying to create a bar chart to show when a team is planned to perform depending on the week of the year, in a time frame of 12-weeks. The week's time frame is dynamic, and is updated by formulas depending on the current week's value.

My data is set up as in the next image, where cells having a '1' represent the team is scheduled.

I'm trying to show this in a chart similar to the one below but I am having the following issues:

a) I can't make the FW's to be shown in the horizontal axis

b) I can't make each Team, to have 1 series for all weeks (each week is being considered as 1 individual series)

The image below shows what I achieved by using stacked bar chart, but still is not fully as I need it.

Thanks in advance for your hints and answers.

    Smartsheet’s chart widget uses:

    • Columns as data series, and
    • Rows as labels (categories)

    So if your FW (Week Numbers) are column headers, Smartsheet won’t display them on the X-axis.

    You need to transpose your data.

    Hello @Naeem Ejaz,

    Thanks for your answer. It did fixed the issue to display 'Week Numbers" on the X-Axis. What I am missing is to have the series name in the Y-Axis. Any hint for this other topic?

    Thanks in advance.
