Kendo UI DataViz incorrectly grouped values in chart

[Gabrielle]

I have strange problem when aggregating my sale data by Location and displaying it on the chart by date.I have let's say 25 Sales Amount in two locations across different dates. Location A has 10 days when minimum 1 sale happened, location B has 15 days. I want to display line graph for last month for those two locations displaying the day and the amount of the sale. The days with no sale should just interpolate.The expected result is two lines each with different days and different amount. But What I get is two lines but( each with 9 dates) always paired together. It displays incorrect day and the amount of the sale that day. The data from the server are however correct , and so is correct the graph if only one location is displayed.The problem seems to be when the two lines have different dates.here is the relevant code:

function makeChartData(transport, field){
        var chart_data = new kendo.data.DataSource({
            transport: transport,
            group: {
                field: field
            }
        });
        return chart_data;
    }

    var chart_data = makeChartData(transport, "Location_Name");

    function createSalesChart() {
        return $("#overview-chart").height(400).width(490).kendoChart({
            dataSource: chart_data,
            autoBind: false,
            seriesDefaults: { type: "line", stack: false, missingValues: "interpolate" },
            series: [
                {
                    field: "Gross_Total",
                    name: "Gross Total",
                    categoryField: "Date"
                }
            ],
            categoryAxis: {
                field: "Date",
                baseUnit: "days",
                type: "date",
                labels: {
                    dateFormats: {
                        days:"M-d"
                    },
                    step: 7
                },

            },
            valueAxis: {
                name: "currency",
                labels: { format: currency_prefix+"{0}"+currency_suffix },
            },
            legend: { position: "bottom" },
            tooltip: { visible: true, format: "0" },
            plotArea:{
                background: "#FFF"
            }
        });
    }

Hello,

I can't be sure what the problem is without looking at the actual data. My guess is that the date format can't be parsed by the chart. This can result in a sequential (categorical) chart.
Please, test the date format using kendo.parseDate("..."). It should be able to successfully parse it.

The chart configuration itself looks fine and a simple test confirms that it's valid: http://jsbin.com/oHeKaTa/1/edit?html,output
