How to create a Bar Chart with multiple dimensions?

[#1]

Hi,

My data looks something like this (a sample):

CHEMICAL	SUPPLIER17	2.11	2.47	2.54
CHEMICAL	SUPPLIER18	2.69	2.33	2.02
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER19	2.61	2.4	2.56
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER2	2.88	2.86	2.87
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER20	1.81	2.59	1.95
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER21	1.83	1.89	2.82
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER22	1.95	2.31	2.67
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER23	1.92	2.51	2.27
CONSTRUCTION	SUPPLIER24	3.1	3.58	3.59
METALWORKING	SUPPLIER25	3.45	3.29	3.06
METALWORKING	SUPPLIER26	4.1	3.8	3.21
METALWORKING	SUPPLIER27	4.24	3.2	3.6

I need a barchart that shows by each industry (Chemical/ Construction/ Metalworking) the names of suppliers (Supplier1, Supplier2 etc.) and their respective scores for each year (column 3,4,5 in the above table).. I'm only able to add Supplier Name & the respective score against each name, however, I'm not able to include the Industry name in the same chart, as, when I do so, the chart automatically changes to stacked type, which is not what I need.

I'm attaching my QV file.. could anyone please help with this?

Thanks,

Hi, I'm not sure if this is enough, but you can remove your dimension and include a calculated one with the following definition:

=INDUSTRY & '-' & [SUPPLIER NAME]

Hope it helps,

Hi Erich,

Thanks! This definitely helps.. But I was wondering if there was any way of getting the QV chart to look a little like the Excel version of the same chart :

Please let me know if this is possible.. if not, would you suggest an alternate approach...?

Thanks,
