Best visualization to compare sales data

Hi,

 

 I am currently working on a dashboard where I have to compare sales for past 5 years. I have created a basic dashboard where I am comparing data from this year to previous year and so on. I need some suggestions regarding what all visuals can I use except for Bar or line graph to show my comparison in a better way.

 

Thanks,

Siddhant

Hi @siddhantk989

 

You could try the Tornado?  https://app.powerbi.com/visuals/show/TornadoChart1452517688218

 

But I think the line/bar do a pretty good job at showing comparisons.

 

Remember you can plot metrics like 'Diff Actual' and 'Diff Percent' to create different effects.
