I have a set of data which contains Date field. On a single chart I want to be able to display the total sales and profit for multiple product for two different periods comparisons. Like 1.Aug 2010 over Aug 2011 (same month over different years) 2.Aug 2011 over July 2011 (previous months same year) Date field should be used as filter in March-2001 format. The should be controlled by sales and profit metric.
