Week start date to show bars for each day falling under the week

[#1]

Hi Folks,

I see difficulty in representing week's day level data on a week starting date (i.e. Monday) with all the bars corresponding to each day of the week.

For example, I represent combo chart with above details. Now, I will need to show day level data with a dimension of week start date.

I have tried option WeekStart(Calendar_date). But it accumulates entire week and shows as single bar.

I need to show individual bars of each day and the week's starting date should represent all the bars of the days that fall under the week.

Could you please help me with this.

Thanks in advance,

VLC.

Hello Laxmaiah,

Trust that you are doing well!

As a workaround you can create two different dimensions as given below:

//Day Level Date value field
DateKey AS OrderDateKey, 
//Week Start Date for given day
WeekStart(FullDateAlternateKey) AS WeekStartDay,

Post this reload the data and add these dimensions in Used Dimensions- WeekStartDay & OrderDateKey respectively (WeekStartDay with highest priority) and add the required expressions.

This will give you expected result.

Regards!

Hi Rahul,

Thank you for the help.

But this is not working.

I see the above chart if I take WeekStart(Calender_Day) as primary dimension and Calendar_Day as secondary dimension in the used dimensions.

But I need to show individual bars of each day and the week's starting date should represent all the bars of the days that fall under the week.

Thanks,

VLC.

Hi Suresh,

Thanks for your help.

My data is like this.

Date                  Open    Closure   WIP

01-Dec-2016     5000     5200      1800

02-Dec-2016     5100     5400      4520

03-Dec-2016     5040     4800      6790

04-Dec-2016     6200     6800      3870

05-Dec-2016     5280     9800      3405

06-Dec-2016     5346     6700      8045

07-Dec-2016     8790     8760      6708

08-Dec-2016     9870     9085      3450

09-Dec-2016     3076     5200      2486

and so on.

I show Combo chart with Open and Closure on bars; WIP on trendline.

But I will need to represent week's day level data on a week starting date with all the bars corresponding to each day of the week. So my X-axis dimension should show only dates such 01-Dec-2016, 08-Dec-2016, 15-Dec-2016 etc with individual bars of each day that falls under the week.

Thanks,

VLC

Hello Laxmaiah,

You can Calendar_Day (secondary dimension) you can suppress the Legend values (refer attached application).

Please share the application with sample data, if problem still persists.

Thanks Rahul Pawar.

It looks really good.

But I need to represent Open and Closure on two individual bars instead of one above the other.

I have tried updating salesDemo application to have it. But I do not see the feasibility.

Could you please help me with that.

Thanks,

VLC.
