Hi all. I'm trying to set up a basic line graph which shows my cumulative pension amount, which starts from June '22 until now. I didn't start tracking the pension value monthly until Jan '24. When I add the pension value to the graph it automatically starts from the same date as the cumulative data. How do I get it to start on the graph from Jan 24?
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.

welcome to the forum.
But, can you provide a sample of your data?

You see the red line starts at Jun '22 rather than Jan '24?

Thanks for the data. Change your values with no data to =NA() instead of zeros.

I think that is what you're asking about.
