OK, what am I missing here? It's October 2nd, why is my chart still showing last months volume profile?

If I understand correctly what you want to do (ie: show a unique profile per month), then you need to set:
Volume Graph Period Type = Multiple Profiles Fixed By Time

The rest of your settings look correct.

I want a single profile only for the current month.

oh ok. I haven't done that before but gave it a try now and mine seems to work using the same settings that you're using. Sorry, not sure what else to try.

However using the multiple profiles fixed by time option would still give you a unique profile per month. The only difference being that you have more than one on the screen,...but each one is unique to the month

Edit: oh wait, sorry. I see my screenshot is actually showing September's profile, but nothing yet for October. hmmm

This is sort of working correctly (Oct is not done yet), but there should be either a new option or this option should be modified to use the last partial period. Did you post to Sierra forum?

Can you be more specific? I need to alter a setting?

It is working correctly with your settings. There is no setting that does what you want. Therefore ask SC support for a new option (you either need a new option to do single final period even if not complete, or they need to change the current option to do the same).

OK, I understand now. I thought it was just setup wrong. Perhaps you could pass this message along for me the next time you are in the neighborhood.

Do you know of a work around that I can use in the meantime?

long time ago I requested a new feature, they said for $50 they will do it. I paid the fee and the new feature available in the next release.

What feature? Maybe I'm using it and should be thankful to you
