Hello,
I am charting IT help desk tickets and I need to make a chart showing how many tickets are opened and closed every month. The timestamp for _time is the ticket failure_date. To accurately reflect how many tickets are closed per month I need to search "All_Time" so if a ticket were opened in say December 2016 and then closed in March 2017 it'll be captured in the graph.
Now I can get all the data to graph but I would like to only graph select months if possible. Below is the current search I am using:
sourcetype=Current_file
| where STATUS != "DRAFT"
| eval FAILURE_DATE=strptime(FAILURE_DATE, "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M")
| eval CLOSED_DATE=strptime(CLOSED_DATE, "%m/%d/%Y %H:%M")
| eval STATUS=mvappend("Open","Closed")
| mvexpand STATUS
| eval _time=case(STATUS="Open", FAILURE_DATE, STATUS="Closed", CLOSED_DATE)
| timechart span=1mon count by STATUS
