To create a timeline chart similar to the one shown, the following parameters are typically required:
1 Measure: This could be the count of Closed Won opportunities or any other relevant metric that needs to be tracked over time.
1 Grouping by a Date Field: This is essential to plot the timeline effectively. The date field would typically be the close date of the opportunities.
Additional Groupings: Depending on the complexity and the detail needed, additional groupings can be added. For example, grouping by region or product line can provide more insights into the timeline. If trellis is used, it allows for the creation of multiple smaller charts within the main chart, each representing a slice of data based on the additional groupings.
This setup helps visualize the evolution of Closed Won opportunities over time, making it easy to spot trends, seasonal patterns, or other relevant insights.
