Good afternoon

I have a bar chart with YoY performance. I wanted to highlight certain area's by using a vertical line that works with the data.

When using an Error Bar it places the line in between the 2016 and 2017 clustered columns when I want it to appear before or after the clustered columns.

Excel Facts

Move date out one month or year
Use =EDATE(A2,1) for one month later. Use EDATE(A2,12) for one year later.
I'm uncertain about your exact requirements. Do either of these work for you?
