How to create WoW, MoM, QoQ, YoY dimensions to put into variable?

Stephanie_Price

I want to create a dimensional variable that allows users to choose between WoW, MoM, QoQ, and YoY using the chart types below. What is the best way to go about this? Any tips on creating the ETL to create the components above?

Would users using the date range and graph by options suffice? Without creating any variables, users can select if they want YoY, QoQ, MoM, WoW, DoD and the date range to compare.

You can also use the Date Selector on the page as well to select a specific granularity on the graph.

Alternatively if you want to allow the user to display the MoM, YoY and WoW on the same graph you'll have to restructure your data. I've done a write up on how to do this here:
