Hi there,  
I would like to view sales comparison year on year in a line chart with previous year sales overlapping current year for each period. Currently I can only see the totals for each year in a bar chart.  
Thanks,  
Frank

@frank.kearns could you clarify what a bit on what your wanting to see? When I first read it, I’m imagining something like this, but I feel like I may be missing something.

Hi @frank.kearns. As @aaron.roma has pointed out, you can chart current versus previous by charting summary period mode. Hope this helps.
