Challenge: Comparing Sales and Profit Trends for Phones
Task
Your task is to create a combination chart to analyze the trends of Profit and Sales over the years for the Sub-Category "Phones".
-
Drag the "Profit" and "Sales" fields to the Rows Shelf. Ensure that "Profit" and "Sales" are displayed on separate axes by dragging "Sales" to the far right of the canvas (where the graph is displayed) until you see a "+" icon.
-
Drag the "Order Date" field to the Columns Shelf.
-
In the Marks area, separate settings will appear for each field. For "Sales", select the "Bar" chart type.
-
Drag the Sub-Category "Phones" to the Filters area to focus only on this category.
-
Optionally, adjust the transparency and color of the chart for better visualization.
