This Excel comparative analysis dashboard uses Power Pivot to compare current-year sales with the same period in the previous year, and actual sales with budget. Three tables supply the data: Budget, Product Master and Sales. The model diagram and DAX-measure screenshot document the original implementation.
Which tables support the comparisons?
| Table | Fields shown in the tutorial |
|---|---|
| Budget | Month, ProductID, Budgeted Amt |
| Product Master | ProductId, Product Name, Category |
| Sales | Date, ProductId, Sale Amount |
Year-over-year sales and sales-versus-budget answer different questions. Use the model diagram and the five displayed measures to understand the example’s calculations before changing the source tables.
