Hello, I know this can be doen and have done it previously but it seems as I cant rememebr how this morning - i am wanting to prepare a line chart that will compare two sets of data. I want the X axis to be days of the week - M, T, W, Th, F and the Y axis is going to be the item - So I want one line to be for the day of the week that the item comes into the office and the second line to be the day of the week that item was put into work. For example my data will be like this and I want one line to represent arrival of said item while other line represents the start of said item (I am having difficulties due to the arrival and start not being numerical but they should be able to be grouped kind of like a bar chart but wanting it represented as a line/run chart not a bar chart):
ItemArrivalStart Work
1MW
2TT
3FT

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Sorry, I typed the Axis's backwards, I would like the Y axis to be grouped into day of the week and the X axis to be item numberm - so each item number will have two data points associated with it one for each line
