I currently have this graph:
Sum for each name, seperated by month
I want to show % difference each month for each name. Something like the red line:
Is this possible?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous
Based on my research, it's not able to add the line trend based on different group in the column cluster. there's neither suitable visual in the power bi nor achievable using R.
You might consider raising it as an idea in the portal:

@Anonymous , I doubt you will be able to show like that as stacked like is not split by legend
But you can use time intelligence with date table to get that
example
MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD('Date'[Date]))
last MTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH)))
last month Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))
last MTD (complete) Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESMTD(ENDOFMONTH(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,MONTH))))
previous month value = CALCULATE(sum('table'[total hours value]),previousmonth('Date'[Date]))
diff = [MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales]
diff % = divide([MTD Sales]-[last MTD Sales],[last MTD Sales])
To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :
