amcharts multiple series and datasets - dataset

I'm trying to create a datetime based line chart, with a column series.
The problem I found is that amcharts defines dataProvider in chart level, not in series level.
My data points are like:
{date: '2015-11-04 10:12', value: 100}
Obviously I've configered dataDateFormat property.
And I want to add a column, that is only date based. i.e., it displays a number per day. But amcharts force all points to be in the same dataset, isn't it possible to create another dataset, or to define the points in [x,y] method ? rather than all the values in one structure.

Google Data Studio with BigQuery Data Source Issue in Calculated Fields and Aggregation

I have a Google Data Studio dashboard that loads really slowly since it's using Google Sheets as a Data Source. I migrated the same data to BigQuery then used it as my new Data Source however, I came across an issue:
When creating a calculated field, the new calculated field is not tagged as Auto in the Default Aggregation I still have to select Sum as a Default Aggregation. This causes problems in my report. Also, it's not Blue, where normal fields are shown as green, and calculated fields are shown as Blue.
When I was using Google Sheets, I could do direct computations in the calculated fields.
Example:
Handle Time = Talk Time / Number of calls
I just create a calculated field called Handle Time, then put the formula Talk Time / Number of calls
Now, I need to create 3 separate Calculated Fields:
Calculated Field 1: SUM(Talk Time)
Calculated Field 2: SUM(Number of calls)
Calculated Field 3: Calculated Field 1 / Calculated Field 2
This is even though I already tagged them as Sum in the Default Aggregation. Can anyone help me understand what I'm doing wrong?
Solution:
A single calculated field will do the trick; the aggregation of each respective field needs to be stated explicitly in the calculated field:
SUM(Talk Time) / SUM(Number of calls)
Why the Change?
To elaborate, the change was part of the Data Modeling update on 31st October 2020; one of the benefits of explicitly stating the aggregation is that it offers greater flexibility with the ability to aggregate fields as required when creating a calculated field, for example, something like:
MAX(Talk Time) - MIN(Talk Time) / COUNT(Handle Time) * AVG(Handle Time) / COUNT_DISTINCT(Text_Field1) * COUNT(Text_Field2)
Speed
Regarding speed, where the Data Set is large and static (daily updates are fine and real time data is not required), then a Data Extract would be a good option.
Dimensions are shown as green, metrics are shown as blue. Data imported from other sources, particularly from Google sheets tend to show metrics as green but when you add them to a chart or table they get recognised as metrics and change to blue.

How do I create a default everyday date dimension?

I am trying to create a line chart counting all the optins per date, however the only dimension that is will allow me to choose from have to be a date column on my source. The problem with this is it only chooses from dates that are populated in those fields with an optin date.
For example: I have 5 optins on 1/1/2019, 0 on 1/2/2019, and 3 on 1/3/2019
If I use this series and want to include another metric, 1/2/2019 will not show anything for that other metric
I just want a standard everyday series that counts every metric on a given day. The google analytics connection source has a generic Date dimension but I can not figure out how it was done
Ive tried creating a new column with everydate on it and trying to use that as a dimension without any luck
You should be able to use a Time Series graph (of which there are 3 types) instead of a Line graph.
A Time Series will keep the days where no data is available unlike the Line Graph which only presents labels for those which have values in the data.

SSRS Chart Calculated Series alongside a Regular Series

I've noticed that in SSRS the ability to add a calculated series disappears if you already have a field filled in for the "Series Groups" part of the graph. Screenshot to demonstrate:
However I need to be able to add some calculated trend lines for the data and obviously removing the Series group renders the chart useless. How do I go about getting a Series and a calculated series on a chart?

creating a simple pie chart

I need to create something like this in SSRS:
My source dataset is fetchxml. I have actually two datasets.
One dataset is just the datapoint "347" whereas the other datapoint is "1000"
Dataset_Active returns 347
Dataset_InActive returns 1000
I have the option of using these fields for the following 3 categories:
My issue is that I cannot use values from multiple datasets.
How do I create a pie chart where the data comes from 2 different datasets? Also in the case that I just neeed to graph 2 values, should I use anything in the category/values/series or just use values?

Reporting Services Chart - Hard Coded Series

I am developing an SSRS 2008 report which contains a number of simple charts. On the x axis I have the 12 months of this year - Jan 2009 thru December 2009. On the Y is an integer value ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 10. I am plotting the number of times an issue occurred per month. So January could have a value of 10, February 30, etc. etc.
I would like to have a horizontal line/series that is constant and shows the yearly average for 2008. So, say the average was 30 issues per month in 2008, I would like for that line to be shown in my chart. Basically, I want to draw a straight line across the chart for that value... I can see how to add more complex series, but this seemingly simple task is getting the better of me.
Doe anyone have any idea how this could be accomplished?
Thanks in advance,
Jason
[Update] To add some further details, I am already pulling the average for each row in my dataset and have it set up as its own series. However, rather than plotting a line, this approach plots individual points for each month. While this is close to what I want, I need to join the dots so to speak. The chart is of the Error Bar (Range) variety.
Can you use a column / line hybrid chart? If so then add a constant or dynamic target value to the chart:
Design the chart.
On the Data tab in the Chart Properties dialog box, add a new data value (for example, Target).
Set the target value (see the example in Figure 9 on link this uses a constant target value of 100000 across all categories but you can do it dynamically too). Make sure to use an expression starting with = (equals). Otherwise, the value is not interpreted as a numeric value.
See the example on the MS charts page at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964128.aspx
Add the yearly average to each row in the underlying the query. Add data series on just that value.
I managed to solve this issue myself.
As I mentioned, I was using an Error Bar graph. Right-clicking on the series of interest, I was able to change the graph type for that particular series - essentially leaving me with a chart with multiple graphs in it...particularly simple if you know where to look - which i did not! Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
