Sales evolution through time
At the end I created a new meassure that is Year-Month, and then sorted alphabetically. I don't like it, but for now it does the job.
At the end I solved it with a date table with the information about the months, quarters, financial years, etc.
It's not ideal and tableau does it automatically, but it solved the issue! Using a date table is extremely useful.
Yes something like this is what I want, but there is no other way through the normal visualizations? In Tableau you can group them in weeks, months, etc, so you can easily see the evolution.
I need something like the below, but I can't seem to be able to obtain a chart like the below.
Anonymous I was able to create this with a line chart, with Date on the Axis, Product as the Legend, and Value as Values.
I believe this is what you're looking for?
Yes, even combined would have been nice. Did you use any particular calculated fields or just with the normal visualization options? How did you achieve it?
Thanks
Standard line chart visualization with Date on the axis, Product as the legend, and Value as values.
For a combined view, I created the below measure and then put Date on the axis, Combined in the values, and removed Product from the legend.
Combined = SUM(Sheet1[Value])
If that answers your question, can you please mark it as the solution?
