You have 3 things in the chart: the x-axis; the y-axis; and, the series. The legend applies to the series not the axis.

Please share your SPL and clarify what you want the legend to show

The legend is in the order of the series in the table. Chart tries to be helpful by putting these in a sorted order. In order to work against this, you have to do a couple of tricks. Try this:

| chart count(Device_ID) over latestversion by Final useother=f
| untable latestversion Final count
| where count > 0
| eval Final=latestversion."!".Final
| xyseries latestversion Final count
| transpose 0 column_name=Final header_field=latestversion
| eval Final=mvindex(split(Final,"!"),1)
| transpose 0 column_name=latestversion header_field=Final

Thanks. But now legend values not in sorted order.  It is 2020, 2021, 2020 etc..But we need 2020 2020 2021.
