Hello,
I have about have about 3 years worth of sales data and I'm comparing in-store to online sales. I summarized my data in a pivot table and included two slicers to easily click on a year and month to view the total sales for that period. I'd like to use a graph to show a visual of this data, but the suggested graphs don't exactly capture what I'm trying to display. Can anyone please suggest a better way to graph and visualize this data? I'll include a screenshot of my pivot table and slicers. Thanks!

is there anyway you can send a sample of your data for each year and some of the months?
It really hard for the forum to recreate your scenario.

The Mr. Excel Forum has a tool called xl2bb add in (link below) that allows you to do this. It won't copy the pivot table coding or any charts, but it give the data .

Hello awoohaw,
Thanks for your reply. I'm trying to use the xl2bb tool but it only allows a max of 3000 cells. I posted some of the data but not sure if that's enough. Any way I can send the file?

Okay. I am not a fan of pie charts, but I do like tree maps. But tree maps are strange.
I cannot: 1) make a dynamic title 2) use pivot tables as sources and 3) (probably) use slicers.
Here is what i came up with. First is an image, and then I'll try to post a mini sheet. but it has hidden rows and not sure if those mess up the xl2bb:

Thanks for your replies! Here is the Dropbox link with the Excel data

One sheet has the original data and the other has a pivot table. I'm wondering if I can use a line graph to visualize the data and use the slicers to filter the data.
