Hi Casimir, @Casimir_Rob,

Thank you for reaching out to us! I would like to clarify a few points to help me assist you better:

“Currently, it’s not possible to have date columns.”

Each row of the Metric Sheet consists of side-by-side cells to demonstrate the metric for each month/year. Could you please elaborate on what you mean by this statement?

A (%) change comparison to the previous period in the metrics sheet.

Could you please clarify which “previous period” you would like to compare to?"

Looking forward to hearing from you!

@Casimir_Rob Hi Casimir,

Thank you for getting back to me! I apologize for any confusion. We have acknowledged the absence of PoP in the metrics sheet. I was just hoping to clarify what you expect the PoP in the metrics sheet to look like. This way, I can note down your request in our backlog to avoid misalignment when we implement the feature later on. Really appreciate any further input from you, thank you!

Hi @Casimir_Rob

Our AQL-based Period-over-Period Comparison feature can help solve your use case above and more:

  • Apply period comparisons in metric sheet.
  • Apply comparisons to individual measures of your choice, rather than to all measures in a visualization.
  • Compare multiple periods simultaneously.
  • Applying conditional formatting and custom styling.
  • Set data alerts on PoP measures.

You can learn more about the new feature here: Period-over-Period Comparison

Thank you for your patience and support all this time :pray:
