Hi,
I've been using Power BI Pro to try and build an employee performance dashboard. I currently have the employee data as; Employee Table(UserID, Name, Supervisor, Manager, Cost Center) and the KPI that I'm measuring, eg. daily sales stored as DailySales Table(Date, UserID, Sales). I've been trying to figure out a way to have a line chart where if a slicer were used to select a particular employee, then the chart will display two lines; one to display the employees sales trend, and the other will display the average sales for their respective supervisor.
The idea is that the employee or their supervisor should be able to compare the employee's performance against the overall team average.
I've been using Power BI Pro for over a month now and have generally been able to find what I've been looking for here pretty easily, but this problem has me stumped! Would appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction or let me know if I'm missing something.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Nevermind, I've figured it out! I created another measure that ignores the slicer selection and calculates the average. Adding it to the chart works exactly like I was hoping it would.
