Chart type not available
Hello,
I'm trying to select the pie chart, and it tells me that this chart type is not available. Any ideas?

Can you share a screenshot of your data? It looks like your missing data.

Check your columns. Pie Charts can only use 2 columns (Label and Number), and must have at least one label that has a number already above zero. If all amounts are zero, there is nothing to show on a Pie Chart, therefore it will not be an available option.

Did that work for you?

Not sure about the original requester, but it helped me.
Thanks!

What if I want to show a pie chart of projects by US region? i.e. we have a list of projects (column), the projects have a region (location) assigned to them (column), I want to calculate the percentage of projects for each region (total 100%). How do I do that? There is not a number value to calculate the percentage, but I should be able to take the number of projects for each region and calculate a percentage of the total number of projects.

Hi @TristanS
What I would do in this instance is create a Row Report from this sheet.
Then you can GROUP by the Region, and use the SUMMARIZE function to Count how many rows are in each Region. Once you have a Grouping and Summary row in your Report, you can use this Report as the source for your Chart. A Pie Chart will automatically create percentages out of those numbers.
Here's a webinar that goes through these features: Redesigned Reports with Grouping and Summary Functions
Cheers!
