Hi,

I am in dire need to analyze some sales figures for a lot of different products to identify which ones have similar sales pattern over the course of a 12 month period. No regards to volume, only sales pattern over 12 months is interesting. I need the products with similar patterns to be grouped up together for further analysis.

My initial solution have been to sort the products on total sales over the period, creating a line-chart and then trying to match the products. As you might understand this is an endless task, which is why I am calling for help.

Thankful for any and all advice!
