using Power query or DAX
Sales data
for the first example, we have a generic sales dataset.
It has Order date and Profit etc columns plus 4 years' worth of data.
We can add these 2 columns to a line chart (or any chart ) can visualize sales profit throughout the year
we need to make a line chart with 4 lines to represent each year.
The Easiest way
For this, the order date should be in date format.
- Add profit column to Y-axis
- add order date to X-axis and reduce hierarchy to month.
- add order date to legend and reduce hierarchy to year.
here is the chart.
