Calculating percentage change between months

I have the following data (minus the column in red. That column is the calculation I am trying to get)

MonthSalespersonSum data% change
01/07/2019John10-
01/07/2019Mike5-
01/08/2019John100900% (from 10 to 100)
01/08/2019Mike20300% (from 5 to 20)

 

I would like calculate the percentage increase of a salesperson from one month to another, so I can have, for example, a line chart with months on the X axis and each line representing the percentage change of a particular salesman for that month vs the previous month.

How can this be done?

Thanks

Hi @johnnyjohn ,

You need to handle this in the backend.

in your monthly number you need to add the last month numbers in the same table and in the same line.
