Please see my problem illustrated here:
I have received forecasting information from a customer, telling us roughly what they intend to order from us in a given month. The column months are the "source" data, i.e. reading down the second column (May): in May, they told us that they would spend £10,465 in May and also predicted that they would be spending £8,500 in June.
Each month, they provide a forecast for the upcoming months, so in June, there will be no data included for May. This is shown in the table as a zero, when in reality, it doesn't actually exist in the data and should be blank or N/A. As the pivot table automatically sums the sales for each month, I cannot adjust the formula to show errors instead of zeros to avoid it being plotted.
As you can see in the graph, these zeros are plotted before/after each month and making it incredibly messy.
I have the data in a Pivot Chart because, with slicers, I will analyse the data from multiple months pertaining to many months in the future. I would not be able to keep up if I replicated the data in some way to create a regular excel chart. Is there any way to stop this missing data from being plotted?
