Category Comparison Graph

 

Hey Everyone,

I would like to compare our categories of Call Intent Types by day, looking at one particular category’s calls versus the total calls.  I would also like to do this comparison by Division.  I have created a FAKE DATA set that illustrates what I mean.  Any help?

 

In the REAL data, that spans a full year, and over 30 categories, we are looking to see what categories experience abnormal spikes and on what days, or times of the year.  At first, I did it in a crude way: I created two pivot tables: one pivot table with the total call intents by day, and then a second pivot table and slicer so I could select a specific category (or several) and compare to the day.  A third section would do a ratio of the other two by date.

 

One problem I had was that some days do not have any calls for a particular category, so the table-to-table comparison would no longer line up to the day… for graphing purposes, etc.

 

 

Thanks!

John

    Hi JCovelli,

     

    If it is convenient, could you share some data sample and your desired output so that we could help further on it?

     

    Best Regards,

    Cherry

      Hello!

      Yes I prepared an excel file with fake data, however I cannot see how to upload it here.  Am I missing that?

        So, I have just now discovered the "New Quick Measure" feature and created a line graph that shows the performance by date of one category AND the total of all categories- two lines....

         

        If I could CONVERT this to show the % To Total- ONE LINE-, then I could do the Divisional analysis...  I think I am getting closer!
