  1. Ensure that both the Opened Date and Closed Date columns are set to have a data type of Date.
  1. Create a table with the following formula:
R11_Calendar = CALENDAR(DATE(2020, 1, 1), DATE(2020, 12, 31))
  1. Ensure that there is no relationship between these two tables.
  2. On a Report page, create a Clustered Column Chart with the Date field from the R11_Calendar table in the Axis field.
  3. Ensure that the Date field is set to use the Date hierarchy and remove the Quarter level of the hierarchy.
