I did a little vba code wich helps as well. Now, we have something closer to what we want – a Stacked Column chart with Years on the X-Axis. We want the exact opposite, so click on the Switch Row/Column button.

In this example, Excel chose the Regions as the X-Axis and the Years as the Series data. Your first results might not be exactly what you expect. Then, in the Insert menu tab, under the Charts section, choose the Stacked Column option from the Column chart button. To build a chart from this data, we need to select it. For this example, we’ll look at a few years of regional sales data. Most of the time, a vertical Stacked Column chart is the best option, but you can also use a Stacked Bar chart if your data (or data labels) require it. To get started, we need to build a stacked chart. This tutorial will walk through the steps to get you results like you see in the image. The good news is, there are work-arounds for displaying total volumes or dollars at the top of a stacked chart and percentages for each of the pieces. Unfortunately, the are somewhat limited, since they don’t automatically provide totals for the stack, and they don’t let you show the percentage contribution that each piece provides to the whole (like you can with pie charts in Excel). 7Download the Stacked Chart Percentages Example FileĮxcel’s Stacked Bar and Stacked Column chart functions are great tools for showing how different pieces make up a whole.6Adding Percentages Automatically with an Add-In.4Adding Percentages to the Stacked Column Chart.I had to enter all 7 arguments to get it to work, but it did exactly what I needed. It wasn’t sure if all arguments were needed. I used the help function to get an example calculation. I had a little bit of trouble with the DateTime function at first. DateAdd – subtracts a day off the final result to get yesterday’s operational start.Then, I added on my own timestamp using “6,0,0,0”. DateTime – I use the DateTime function to string together a date using the year, month, and day from DateTimeNow.Day – extracts the day from the current date and time.Month – extracts the month from the current date and time.Year – extracts the year from the current date and time.DateTimeNow – gets the current date and time.I combined the following functions to make it work. DateAdd("dd",-1,DateTime(year(DateTimeNow()),month(DateTimeNow()),Day(DateTimeNow()),6,0,0,0))ĭo who to the what now? Let’s break it down.

Steps 2 and 3 would take a bit of trial and error. Use DateAdd to subtract a day off of that.Use the DateTimeNow function to get today’s date.Spotfire has many useful date and time functions. I wanted to use a simple expression like this…to capture all the activites in the time log for “yesterday”. Since there were only 4 visualizations, I planned on using data limiting with expressions. This small challenge took me long enough to figure out that I thought it warranted a blog post. I needed to use Spotfire date and time functions. Yesterday actually means from 6:00 am yesterday morning to 5:59 am of this morning. Sounds easy, right? They wanted to see a snapshot of yesterday’s operations, which is not exactly the same as yesterday. The dashboard itself was simple enough, a single page with four visualizations. This week, I worked on a dashboard where the user requested a snapshot of yesterday’s operational activities.
