Riny_van_Eekelen Hello, hoping you can help me.
I am trying to create a bar graph chart for our quarterly sales results. I am comparing our client's demand to our commitment vs what we actually shipped. I have the bars properly displayed but I am trying to show the trend from our commit vs the actual on the same chart. Basically, I have 3 bars, the client (ex 2,5M), commit (ex 1.8M), and actual (ex 2.2M). I want to display the trendline only from the commit to the actual (ex displaying better results than our commit). All I am able to do is show the trend of all the totals or have 2 separate charts. Appreciate your help.

Giovanni1220 Difficult to visualize what you are trying to achieve. Can you share a file (Onedrive or similar) with some example data and the graph that you have already made?

This is the data where I want a trend line only for the Commit vs Actual.

Giovanni1220 Not a trend line but perhaps something you can use anyway. I added another column for the red line and created a combo chart (three columns and a line). See attached.
