Visual to show difference between measures

Hi

 

I have these visuals.

 

The visual upper left shows 'Closed items'per month.

The visual upper right shows 'New items' per month.

The visual down left shows 'New items' - 'Closed items' per month.

 

Is there a better visual way to show the net growth per month, whereby you also see per month the closed and new ones?
Three visuals for this looks overwhelming

Regards 
Ron

 

  • Waterfall charts are useful for that purpose. Another way to tackle it would be putting both closed and new in the same chart.

    Thnx ray_aramburo 

    How would it look then if you put them both in the same chart?
    How then do you see the difference?

      You'll see it more visually than explicitly but you can also create a measure to get the difference and place it on the same chart.
