    are you trying to show different lines for each year or do you just want to show one line with the percent change for each month?

    Different lines for each year

    You need a Year field and a Month field to do this. The Year field will be your Series, the Month will be your x axis and the field that contains the values will be the y axis. You can use beast mode to create the Year and Month fields. 

     

     

    fore the Year field  you can do something like this 

    YEAR(`Date`)

     

    and for the month 

    Month(`Date`)

    I have ran into a problem with this solution.  The months on the x axis are not in calender order.

    I am having the same problem. I couldn't find solution. I want to show one line with the percent change for each year. Thank you in advance!
