<p>Your chart screenshot can possibly lead to confusion.  Can you use a 2D version instead?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If your requirements dictate that this particular 3D chart must be used, then you'll need to use the Custom Visualization Report Item, and use a JavaScript charting library that will mimic this Excel 3D Line/Ribbon chart.</p>
