Splunk Charting Data Based on Type

I have derived data from Splunk in the following format (Actual Format). But I want to format furthermore it in such a way that I can see which items are present in which categories, and which are missing (Expected Format). I am trying to chart it based on categoryID, but it's not working for me as I do not think max function is appropriate for this. Can anyone please help me know how can I achieve this

Tried using

| chart max(itemId) over itemId by categoryID

| eval itemId="EST-1".(random() % 9 + 1)
| rex "(?<Comment>(?# this is your actual result, check this. 
from here, the logic))"
| xyseries itemId categoryID itemId
