Hi vijiaykumartcs,

To remove "other" values, please set the useother attribute to false in your query. Here's an example:

sourcetype=access_* action=purchase | timechart count by product usenull=f useother=f

You can also set usenull=f to filter out null values.
Hope it helps. Thanks!

Sorry for the typo - there shoud not be an asterisk at the end. Here is the corrected example query:

sourcetype=access_ action=purchase | timechart count by product usenull=f useother=f

Try useother=f
