Line Chart

A line chart plots data points and connects them with lines to visually represent trends over time or across categories. It not only shows numerical values but also highlights how data changes.

Below is an example of how to create a line chart.

Example: Visualize Monthly Sales in the Current Year​

Data Scope: Filter records from the “Orders” worksheet where the “Signed Date” is within the current year.

X-Axis: “Signed Date” field

Granularity: By month — one value per month

Y-Axis: Total monthly sales
