Hello Folks,
I have a dashboard in place which I had built sometime back. It provides all the information i need but doesn't really present the data for business meetings.
It shows the Plan and Actual values for Work Volumes metrics.
I have attached a packaged workbook( 2 worksheets) and I am trying to see a fresh and an interesting dashboard which will replace my original one.
I am confused with this chart type and want to see if there can be some other chart in place of this one.
Thank you in advance!
hi Sanket,
So I can't see your 2nd dashboard as it's running live off your database...but here are a couple of options I thought of for the 1st one.
So Bullet charts are easier, for some, to decipher than reference line charts
Or we can break the chart into 2, so we have scale and variance (I've show the variance to plan in Absolute terms, and then labelled this with the %age)
Hope these help give you some ideas!
For me it all depends on the purpose of the chart. What action is someone trying to make from the data, or what is most important to them. Once you have this nailed down (which can take a bit of time and skill, as people haven't always really through about "what it's actually for"!), then play with a few ideas which answer these question in the most efficient way
