Graph Question

Hello,

I have a graph that has the dimension as date and the expression as a percentage for 4 different regions.

The graph shows the percentage on the Y-axis and the date on the X-axis.  The different regions are represented by bars.

I want to make a graph that will list the regions on the X-axis, the percentage on the Y-axis and have the months represented by bars.

The data is coming from Excel.  I am able to make this graph in excel with the information I have.

How would I put this in the chart maker for QlikView?

Thanks

You need to load your data in differently....

Table:

Load * inline

[

ActionDate, Country, Percent

October, US,3%

October, Mexico,7%

October, Canada,3%

November, US,2%

November, Mexico,5%

November, Canada,4%

December, US,3%

December, Mexico,4%

December, Canada,3%

];

If you load it like that and make the first dimension country and the second action date and then set the expression to sum(percent) you should get the chart you are looking to make.  See attached qvw

On the Style tab of your Bar Chart Object try changing the Orientation to Horizontal.  [Picture of bar going left to right]

Use Promote / Demote to change the order of your Dimensions in Dimension Tab of the Bar Chart Object.
