From the dropdown list at the top of the Properties Pane, select the chart object whose properties you want to define.
Data Members
The data members to show on the chart object can be selected by Time Selection, Members Selection, or Members Expression. Choose an option in Select By.
Time Selection
In Periods Dimension, select Auto (default) for automatic selection of the first date in the list of slicers. Select Date or Date Hierarchy to select from the current Date dimension or Date Hierarchy.
In Last Period, select Auto to take the last period from the currently sliced period in the workboard. Select Last Date to take the last period with data at the level of the currently sliced period. Select one of the other options (e.g. Last Date – Months) to take the last period with data, at the selected level.
To find the last period using a measure other than the default measure, select it in Find Last Period Using.
Choose the Number of Periods to Show and specify whether this is for Previous or Parallel periods. For example, if the selection is Last Date – Months for 3 parallel periods, and the month is January, then last 3 Januaries will show.
In Periods Selection, the default selection is N Last Periods, meaning that the selected number of last periods will show. The First Period AND Last option will show only two members – the first and last periods according to the selections, and will draw a line between them.
The Summary area will explain your selections.
