Explanation

To create a reference line in Tableau, you need a continuous axis. Reference lines are typically used to indicate a specific value or threshold across the continuous range of data. They do not require a date field, nor do they require an axis with a dimension. While a reference line often uses an aggregated measure, the essential requirement is a continuous axis, which allows Tableau to draw the line across a range of values.
