Hello,
I would like to create a bar chart I’m using Metabase cloud
My table is simple
A date and 4 amounts
I would like to see those 4 amounts per day like this Create interactive charts | Metabase Learn
But the configuration is not working :
I cannot choose the Y-axis
So I follow what is suggested :
And tried multiple options;:
So I do not know how to use it
Can someone help me ?
It’s a bit of a bizarre sales ledger, with the duplicated and missing days and all, so the chart won’t be pretty, but it’ll work.
I assume you are looking for a stacked bar chart? That’s what’s described on the page you linked.
To get a chart like this (note that days missing from the ledger are not represented here):
Set your notebook up like this:
You’ll get 4 different series, one for each column, summed for each day.
Select a Bar chart as your visualization.
Set up the panels like this: (If the Y-axis has the wrong series, use the X button to delete it, then use ‘Add a series’ or ‘add a breakout’ to repopulate it)
You may want to omit the “Net Sales” column as the bar chart will represent that already.
Let us know if this isn’t what you were looking for.

Thank you @dwhitemv
The issue is in summarize I cannot choose Gross Sales, Net Sales, etc
And I found the issue : it was the format
So I create a view transforming string to number
CREATE VIEW `rev_view`
AS SELECT
CAST(gross_sales AS FLOAT64) AS gross_sales,
etc
And it’s working
Thank you !
