How to combine 3 chart into 1 ?

[admin11]

Hi All

I have 3 chart , the purpose of the 3 chart , it allow me to know the trend sales by brand. For example YTD the rank no 1 brand is Beckhoff , and during 2020 and 2019 Beckhoff sales is rank number 2. 

Now i like to know how to plot this chart in one chart. Reasons is more easy to create. Since 3 in 1.

Below link is my PBI file :-

Hi @admin11 ,

The file was deleted. You may consider to create 3 measures for 2019, 2020, YTD values. Put the measures in Values and use BRAND_C as Axis.

Best Regards,

Jay

Hi @admin11 -

Building on what @DouweMeer said, you can also try these. In both cases you would use [SALES_] as the value, not the separate measures you have for each year:

Clustered Column chart with Axis = Year and Legend = BRAND_C

Clustered Column Chart with Year and BRAND_C as 'hierarchy" axes (no legend)

Hope this helps

Noticed it wasn't solved yet. He needs to have to sort on the legend behave differently. Now, I don't know whether it works dynamically, but perhaps use the 'sort by column' function to make the legend sort different than alphabetically. You could perhaps create a sort per context by pre-calculating the results in a custom column and make it work by that. 

Doubt the functionality though when it can't be done dynamically as you would need different figures through the years if they are not consistent.

Your proposal is great , but i need to sort from high sales on the left . if you notice from the image i posted when i first post this , all the 3 chart are sort from high to low. so very easy for me to notice that brand the sales drop from top 1 to 2.

Theoretically you could do a line chart with the years on the x-axis and the brand in the legend as well. But those are not columns :). Lines would be good if you have multiple year. 

Your choice :). But you don't have to follow thesse of course.

Like so? 

Just ditch the year in the measure I guess and then use the clustered column chart. 

Haven't checked on your pbi file as I don't have access to dropbox here :).
