Hey,
I am looking for a solution to compare the sales per month of different years, within one diagram. So on my X-Axis I want to show every month from JAN to DEC and on the Y-Axis the amount of sales for every month.
The problem is, that it does not seem to be possible, to compare different years within one diagram (because if I put the date dimension on the X-Axis, it will show the month combined with the year). So the sales of every year should be shown in one graph (different colour), so that you can see the amount of sales per month im comparison for each different year.
I hope my problem is clear for everyone and someone has an idea on how to approach this.
Regards,
Lucas
Solved! Go to Solution.
did you add the year as a legend and it did not work?
Yes, thanks a lot!
That worked for me. I had to remove the date-dimension from the X-Axis first, though. Afterwards, I could just add the month dimension to the X-Axis again and it does exactly what I wanted to do.
