The Comparison chart displays a trend chart of dimension members over a period of time for a standard KPI. The Comparison chart compares results for the actual values of the standard KPI across a dimension's members.

If you uncovered business problems using the Drill report, you can further analyze them here to see overall direction relative to other parts of the organization. While the Drill report shows a single slice in time across the organization, the Comparison chart shows trends for multiple members of the organization.

You can change the graph options by clicking Graph Options.

You can create a Navigator report in the Reports component by clicking Create Associated Report. The Navigator report shows the members of the focus dimension down the table. The actual measure for the selected KPI is displayed across the table for the latest date. If you filtered any dimensions in the Scorecard component, those filters are retained in the Navigator report.

You can modify the Y-axis using Fit Y Axis to Data to set a minimum value based on the smallest available data rather than starting at zero. This provides a more realistic chart of data.
