I have the following worksheet:
The grid is filled with the following formula (this example is from cell H4) that populates the grid based on inputs from the table on the left, =IF($A4="","",IF(AND($E4="Daily",H$2>=$D4,H$2<=$G4),IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="30",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2)&"/",IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="00",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2),$F4)),IF(AND($E4="Weekly",H$2>=$D4,H$2<=$G4,TEXT(H$2,"DDD")=TEXT($D4,"DDD")),IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="30",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2)&"/",IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="00",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2),$F4)),IF(AND($E4="Bi-Weekly",H$2>=$D4,H$2<=$G4,MOD($D4+14,H$2)=0),IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="30",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2)&"/",IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="00",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2),$F4)),IF(AND($E4="Monthly",H$2>=$D4,H$2<=$G4,TEXT(H$2,"MM/DD/YYYY")=CONCATENATE(TEXT(H$2,"MM"),"/",TEXT($D4,"DD"),"/",TEXT($D4,"YYYY"))),IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="30",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2)&"/",IF(RIGHT($F4,2)="00",LEFT($F4,LEN($F4)-2),$F4)),IF(COUNTIF('PowerPoint Gantt'!$A$5:$A$12,$A4)=1,IF(H$2=VLOOKUP($A4,'PowerPoint Gantt'!$A$5:$E$12,5,FALSE)+31,"R",""),""))))))
The only part of the function that isn't working is the Bi-Weekly selection. I can't figure out how to get recurring entries. I can get the start date and one 14 day period after. I've tried using the CEILING function also but still only gets me the next 14th day marked, instead of every 14th day. And ideas?
In your rule for Bi-Weekly meetings, it seems that
MOD($D4+14,H$2)=0
should be replaced with
MOD(H$2-$D4,14)=0
The latter takes the difference between the starting date and the actual date and checks to see if that can be divided by 14, the number of days in 2 weeks.
Your rule for Weekly meetings could be approached similarly, which seems simpler to me than a rule based on the name of the day, like you are using now.
I am trying to make a bar chart with X- axis showing timeline with respect to months (Jan, Feb, March etc). On Y-axis, I want to count how many [KRI] are there in each month based on their [Status Category]?
I have two conditions though:
1) If [Status Category] is 'Final', count that KRI in all months between [TRIGGERDATE] month and [statchedate]. for example, same KRI should be counted in Jan, and Feb and March etc (from time it was open till the time/month it was closed).
2) If [Status Category] is NOT Final, count that KRI in all months between [TRIGGERDATE] month and today's month.
In the picture below with the data sample, the pink colored blocks shows when the KRI should NOT be counted in that particular month.
I am trying to write a custom expression using if statement, but I am not able to figure out how would spotfire know that a KRI should be counted between [Triggerdate] and [Statchedate]? Or for instance, between [Triggerdate] and [today]
I am also thinking about adding a calculated column that will determine if the KRI should be counted in how many months? (but this will be ongoing data, so I am afraid that my column would keep on expanding..)
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated :)

Referring Question: MS Excel Scatterplot converts Months to Numbers
I created scatterplot in month_unordered_axis.xlsx from following data
Then I customized X-axis so it displays only month
Unfortunately the scatterplot (in Chart1 of month_unordered_axis.xlsx) starts with October rather than January.
How to order the X-axis so it displays from January to December?
Your graph is displaying October as the minimum value from its automatic formatting of max/min values. i believe if you scroll up in that formatting window on the right while you have the X-axis selected you will see an option for min and max value. You could set this for the minimum value you in your graph to 36892. This corresponds to the integer value for you lowest date in your series. The unfortunate side effect is that half your circle will be cut off as it extends into the range that is less than your minimum value. You can also set your maximum date to 37256. There are a few other end numbers you can use to give the same results but its essentially the end of December start of January the following year that allow December to be displayed.
Now if you want every month to be displayed (which is independent of placing max min values on your graph), look for the UNITS and Major box. Since you will want ever major line displayed with the name of a month, you will need to make sure the next grid line is a month away. Since not all month are not equal in length you need to play with this number a bit to suit your needs. I started with 30 and wound up with 2 Januaries back to back. However bump it up to 31 and then it tips over into the next month.
The important thing to note here is that you are not actually graphing by months along the X-axis. You are actually plotting by the number of days since January 1st 1900. so January 1st 2001 is 36892 days since January 1st 1900. What excel is doing is counting those days, determine what the date is in a way we like to read it and displaying only the portion we want it to. So for mmmm it the full spelling of the month. And you can see why each grid line being 31 days away is needed to jump into the next month. The kicker is, the grid line is not necessarily the 1st of each month due to the over stepping that is done when you advance 31 days in a month that has 28, 29, or 30 days. and that error gets compounded through the year.
Try using 32 as theMajor Unit step first before putting min and max caps on. (31 resulted in Feb being skipped on my screen). You should still see your axis start before Jan, but your months should all be in order, all displayed and no circles being cut off. Adding the max and min to the axis will cut off your circles but limit the axis to only displaying 12 months.
So I want to make a load duration curve in excel. And I have the demand and the time for which the EV is active for a year. So basically I want to make a load curve for the whole year. My problem is that I only have like a starting and end time where the EV is active during the day and data does not show that it is zero elsewhere.
So I want to create a whole sheet with 24 hour times for 365 days using the data that I have.
My confusion is how to take the limited data that i have which starts at any time not on the hour to make a full 24 hr one year data for a load duration curve.
In a chart with 365 days on the X axis, the distinction between different times of the day will be difficult to discern.
If you use a line chart you can set it to show empty cells as zero instead of connecting empty cells with a line.
If you want the line to drop to zero, you must have rows for that date with no data in the values column.
I have a set of dates and matching numbers in excel, one number for every month in 2013. I need to display these numbers with the dae on the X-axis in a simple line graph. I am mainly intereseted in the number for the last month but also the historical numbers.
It is to crowded on the X-axis to show every single month so I only show every other month. This is easily done by right clicking the axis etc.
Now, since the last month is the most important one I would like to show that month (2013-12) and every other month backwards.
The axis should look something like this:
2013-02, 2013-04, 2013-06, 2013-08, 2013-10, 2013-12
But no matter how I change in excel I end up with this:
2013-01, 2013-03, 2013-05, 2013-07, 2013-09, 2013-11
Since the last month (december) is the most important one I would say it is logical to display that month.
The only way I can get it working is by dropping the first observation which I don't want to do.
Any suggestions how I can et this working in excel?
You have a "fencepost problem". You want to display 12 values, but if you want to display every second one, either you take all the odd numbers (in which case december is hidden) or all the even ones (which hides january)
If you're okay with hiding january, then add a dummy month at the beginning of your series, and give it the value:
=na()
Excel will allot it space but will not give it a point on the graph.
Alternately, if your axis is too crowded, turn the label text sideways or put the year 2013 in the title and only put the months on the x axis (1, 2, 3, ..., 12)
