HOW TO MAKE A BAR CHART WITH LINE SHOWING % CHANGE BETWEEN YEARS

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I have my sales in a bar chart from 2013 to 2020, and I want to add a line between each year that shows me (as a data label) the % change increased/decreased between years. This is my bar chart, and then I added a (horrible) image of how I would like it to be displayed. Could you guys help?

Thanks

@Anonymous , not very clear, You can line cluster visual or or line stacked visual . If you date you can use time intelligence for diff. or you can this year vs last year for diff.

check formulas

YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD('Date'[Date],"12/31"))
Last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year),"12/31"))
This year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR('Date'[Date]),"12/31"))
Last year Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(ENDOFYEAR(dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year)),"12/31"))
Last to last YTD Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),DATESYTD(dateadd('Date'[Date],-2,Year),"12/31"))
Year behind Sales = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales Amount]),dateadd('Date'[Date],-1,Year))
//Only year vs Year, not a level below

This Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])))
Last Year = CALCULATE(sum('order'[Qty]),filter(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Year]=max('Date'[Year])-1))

Have a date or Year Table

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s. Refer :

Appreciate your Kudos.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can try using a "line and Clustered Chart" visual in Power BI to achieve this.

Refer following link on how you can create it:

Thanks,

you could possibly use the stacked /clustered bar and line chart, you would then need to calculate the % change in a calulation and plot it on the secondary axis.
