Hello Experts,

I am looking at creating line graph of daily flight arrival time of each flight.  
Y-axis must be time in HH:MM format and X-Axis is date in DD:MM:YYYY format.

Data is in below format

Flight Number: ABC001  
Arrival Time: 12-03-2019 13:45:12

Please advise if its doable?

You might be better off doing this as a heatmap.

To do that, you will want to split out the time, from the arrival time, into it's own field.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for reply. You mean to use scripted field for deriving the TIME?  
Can it be done using line chart?  
I am looking at similar graph as below, this was plotted in excel.

You can do that, I am not sure what value it provides?

My use case is similar to flight arrival time.  
More than 100 batch jobs get executed in the application I support. The requirement is to plot the line chart graph to identify the job start delays.

I have the data in below format.

JobName,JobStartTime  
ABCD1234, DD/MM/YYYY:hh:mm:ss

I am sure this can be done in Excel by deriving date and time into separate columns. I tried to add the scripted field to do the same but unable to use the scripted field to plot the line graph.
