Multi Comparative Overview

Description

Comparison of members for any number of date ranges; any number of measures

Example

Date setup

This widget shows results for any number of date ranges. Each date range can be compared to an earlier date range (i.e., Last). The default Multi Comparative includes Month to Date (MTD) and Year to Date (YTD) versus a year ago (YAG).

Click on in the widget toolbar (visible on mouseover if enabled) to change any of the pre-configured date ranges or their comparison date ranges.

In the date range dialog, you can name the date range and select from pre-configured or custom date options. The name will appear in column headings and graphs.

Date ranges can be added in explore mode. Click Add Date Range in the toolkit.

To delete a date range, click Delete at the bottom of the date dialog:

Measure setup

The widget can show any number of measures. By default, all the widget's measures will appear under each date range; however, users can hide/show any of these measures for any or all date ranges (if enabled).

To add measure(s), clicking the Measures area of the toolkit (in explore mode).

 

 

In explore mode, you can selectively remove measures for any date range (in the Measures dialog).

Users can further limit the measures that appear in graphs using the Show on graph setting in grid format.
