    If I have two classes as follows:
    public class Defect
    {
        public DateTime DefectDate { get; set; }
        public double QuanityDefective { get; set; }
        public Customer CustomerName { get; set; }
    }

    public class Customer
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public string City { get; set; }
    }

    If I bind my chart to an ObservableCollection of Defect, can I map the Xaxis field as Customer.Name?

    Hi Jeff,

    Indeed, you can set the itemmapping to a nested property. This may look something like this:

    public class MyClass
       {
           public test _yvalue;
           public test MyClassProperty
           {
               get
               {
                   return this._yvalue;
               }
               set
               {
                   this._yvalue = value;
               }
           }
       }
       public class test
       {
           int _innerValue;
           public int InnerValue
           {
               get
               {
                   return _innerValue;
               }
               set
               {
                   _innerValue = value;
               }
           }
       }

    public MainPage()
           {
               InitializeComponent();
                 
               List<MyClass> chartDataSource = new List<MyClass> ();
               test innerEntry;
               MyClass entry = new MyClass();
               innerEntry = new test();
               innerEntry.InnerValue = 12;
               entry.MyClassProperty = innerEntry;
               chartDataSource.Add(entry);
               entry = new MyClass();
               innerEntry = new test();
               innerEntry.InnerValue = 4;
               entry.MyClassProperty = innerEntry;
               chartDataSource.Add(entry);
                            
               SeriesMapping mapping1 = new SeriesMapping();
               mapping1.SeriesDefinition = new PieSeriesDefinition();
               mapping1.SeriesDefinition.InteractivitySettings.SelectionMode = ChartSelectionMode.Single;
               mapping1.SeriesDefinition.InteractivitySettings.SelectionScope = InteractivityScope.Item;
               ItemMapping itemmaping1 = new ItemMapping();
               itemmaping1.DataPointMember = DataPointMember.YValue;
               itemmaping1.FieldName = "MyClassProperty.InnerValue";
               mapping1.ItemMappings.Add(itemmaping1);
               RadChart1.SeriesMappings.Add(mapping1);
               
               RadChart1.ItemsSource = chartDataSource;
                
           }

    I hope this information helps.

    All the best,
