Dynamic x-axis change

Hi Experts,

 

I have Date Dimension with attributes DateID,Date,Month,Quarter,Year.

Fact table: DateID,SalesValue.

My report has 4 slicers: Year. Quarter, Month, Day.

I want to plot bar graph for SalesValue Vs Dynamically changing Date attributes(Year. Quarter, Month, Day).

 

For ex: When I select 2017 from Year slicer my bar graph on x-axis should show up 4 Quarters for 2017 Vs SalesValue.

Similarly, When I select Quarter the x-axis should dynamically switch to months of those quarter.

Any help or workaround would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

      MFelix,

      Thanks for the reply.

      This post uses Year,Quarter as a axis value in one slicer.This does not solve my purpose.

      My need is to have quarter on x-axis when I select year. If I select Quarter, I want the respective months on x-axis changing dynamically.

       

      Thanks

        Hi mwadhwani,

         

        I'm afraid this cannot be achieved. In my opinion, there is no need to create four separate slicers, the easier way is to add the date (yyyy/mm/dd) column into HierarchySlicer. When you select a Year value (e.g. 2017) from slicer, the chart will show relative data n Year level, but you can drill down to Quarter level via clicking the second drilldown icon on the top left of chart visual, so that 'bar graph on x-axis should show up 4 Quarters for 2017 Vs SalesValue'.
