Hi there

In my pivot table I am now showing actual spend, forecast spend, actual applications and forecast applications by week.

How can I only show just spend and forecast spend by week on a chart (without removing them from the pivot)?

Many thanks!

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
I don't think you can. I usually add another Pivot Table to chart and link the Pivots by Slicer Connections.
However, I wonder if you could format the undesired series so they wouldn't be visible. (?) Can we choose "No fill" for the colors?

Thanks for you reply.

That has been my work-around...works ok for lines (as you can pick 'no lines' option)

For bar charts, there are gaps in the data so looks a little wierd...hence my post...as there is actually more than 4 metrics...i was simplifying :-)
