Sales Vs Goal for multiple locations (data included)

Hello,

 

I have been hammering away at this data and would appreciate the help GREATLY! I am in short trying to compare Sales Data and Goal Data, side by side like the bar chart pictured below. I need to be able to flip back and between different locations using a slicer.  


I have put together sample data, which I hope will provide further insight into this. I tried connecting a relationship between the dates to no avail. I receive an error each time.

 

Thank you so much in advance for the help. 

 

 

 

 

"Location - Woo" "Shoot Date" "Total Cost"

    Can you create another table for only for "Locations" and create relationships off the new table? Then use the slicer from the new table.

  • Hi rbfyfe,

     

    What's Sales Data and what's Goal Data? What's your logic to compare the two values and what's your expected result?

     

    Thanks,
    Xi Jin.

      Sales Data:

       

      Each row represents an order.

      Each Order has a "location" a "sales date", and a "Dollar amount". The labels above are somewhat misleading.

       

      Goal Data:

      Each Row represents multiple things -

       

      "A Month", "A location"

      Along with 3 types of data

      "2017 Historical" 

      "2018 Plan" 

      "Model Revenue"

      "Shoots Plan" (this data point is NOT necessary or included in the above graph).

       

      The ultimate goal is to create a bar graph, that shows

      2018 Plan, Model Revenue, Actual Revenue BY Month based on Location.

       

      *Key Point*

      I am managing user roles to only allow specific email addresses see specific locations.

       

      Case examples being, For the month of March, I see that the "Red Bar's" (or Actual Revenue) height is below the "Green Bar's" (2018 Plan) and below "Blue Bar's" (Model Revenue), meaning I missed my goal for the month of March. (They are not wondering how to flip between locations)
