Example

In this example we want to compare sales with budget for the last 3 months, for a selection of customers.

  • From the 'Sales' database select 'Ship to' dimension and select customer (in this example, we have selected 10 customers. Focus.
  • Select Period > Last 3 months
  • Select Mode > Period stream, as shown below. An additional button will now appear to the right of the standard Sales stream button. Select Budget from this button.

The grid will update, as shown below, and you can compare sales with budget for each of the 3 months, as well as the totals.
