Visual for Comparsion

Hey! Everyone 

This is my first attempt in Power BI Blog.

 

I wanted to show SALES on the basis of YEAR and Category. I tried the Waterfall chart but I don't find that useful.

Is there any alternative of Waterfall chart which can make it more attractive?

Can you suggest to me any visual or anything else to represent for better comparison on the basis of Category?

@lovishsood1 you should put the category on x-axis, year on legend, and sales on value. and I think that will give a good comparison, assuming you are looking at few years and there are not too many categories.
