Question

everyone. For the life of me I cannot figure out why the X-Axis is pulling 2 dates in each month when I want it to group by each month. In the Values I have: 

Value Field =RunningValue(Fields!new_actualsalesfromsplit.Value, Sum, "Chart1_SeriesGroup")
Category Field: =Fields!closedate.Value

Category Groups =Month(Fields!closedate.Value)
Group On =Month(Fields!closedate.Value)

Series Group by ["salesperson']

The chart should have a line for each sales person, and each month should be a cumulative representation of the sales by that person. Thanks for any help.

Solution

Set the category field to "=Month(Fields!closedate.Value)", or something similar that will net the results you need. Right now, even though you're grouping by month, you're still telling SSRS to use the atomic data for your X axis, so that's what it's doing.

It may make your task simpler to just add a Calculated Field to your dataset - open the dataset properties window, go to the fields tab, and click "add". Set that field to your month value, use it for grouping and your X axis.
