Date format on YoY chart
Hi - I have a Year over Year by quarter card, and I'd like to have the date format on the x-axis be the quarter number only, i.e. Q1, Q2, etc.. Instead, it defaults to the most recent year. From the knowledge base, it appears that there used to be a macro, %Q, but that was discontinued in the latest release. Can anyone help? Thanks, Laurie

Laurie,
I'm seeing the same thing on my end in regards to the date formats. There doesn't seem to be a working native format option to return only the quarter.
If that's the case, the only method would be to create a beastmode that returns the quarter # for your date range, something like:
QUARTER(`date`)
Then use that as your X axis and apply a sort on the `date` field in order to order them correctly.
You would then have to build out the fiscal year intervals for your values as well and use that as your Y axis values.
It might be worth reaching out to support though to see if there's a way to get the %Q function added back in.
Best of luck,

Valiant - thanks for your reply. I think I'll change it back to a monthly view! But I will put in a suggestion to reinstate the quarterly function. Thanks.
