There are some issues with the default representation shown in Figure 11-14:
notably that the gaps in the dates have been skipped, and the data set looks
continuous when it is in fact not. This is a feature of SSRS to watch for.
SSRS supports scatter plots natively, as illustrated in Figure 11-15. The default
is to use different shapes for the markers, which is a nonstandard way of treat-
ing scatter plots. Some work with expressions is required to show the labels
on the data points themselves.

A traditional bar chart is shown in Figure 11-16, and the slight modification to
the chart to show as a timeline is shown in Figure 11-17.
