Axis Scaling Issues

I'm building a chart that has 2 axis, one is # of purchase orders, one is % on time delivery. My OTD % axis is scaling ridiculously (50 - 210%) when the values in the chart are well within the 50-70 range. The chart looks ridiculous now, and I'm trying to figure out a way to get a normally scaled axis, whether that's the range where the data actually lives in, or even a 0-100. I can't do it manually, because if I do, I can't do the other axis automatically, and the # of purchase orders needs to be automatic. Any advice for how to deal with this issue? Thanks

Dan, can you share a screenshot or two? I'm struggling to visualize what the issue is.

Hey Cindy, see below:

What's in the color column? I'm trying to figure out why it scaled so strangely - I'm testing things out and they don't do that, but I don't have a color column so I'm wondering if that's why?

Dan, I just tested this out some more with a color column added and I am definitely seeing issues when scaling is set to Auto. As soon as I change it to Manual, even without changing any of the values, the axes look much better. Set it back to Auto and it looks wacky again. And, as you mentioned, if it's set to manual it's for both of the measures, which isn't what you want.

Frankly, I think this is a bug in the way the Auto scaling is working and I suggest opening a Support ticket. As a separate issue, I suggest adding a Enhancement request to allow the measures to be scaled independently. But that truly is a separate thing. When set on Auto, it's not working the way it should be.
