Cumulative Goal Report

Hey All,

I have a question on how to turn a goals report in to a Cumulative line graph. At the moment I its got a date on the X Axis and Ive got it as a line graph but I can’t find the option to make it cumulative. Can anyone please show me where this option is?

Best Regards,

Daniel

Hi @DCrinnion1 ,

You can make your line graph cumulative by going to the report, ensuring your graph is set to Line, and having a date or time field in the X-Axis.

Then, go to Chart Settings, where you’ll find the “Cumulative” toggle.

If this helps, feel free to mark it as the solution :check_mark:

and give it an upvote :+1:

! Let me know if you have further questions!

Hey! Thank you so much for the response, I can’t find the chart settings option. Am I on the wrong kind of report?

Hi @DCrinnion1 ,

Everything looks fine. Can you try changing the Start datetime field to simple date based field and check?
Also try switching the report type to check the conditions work in those.

Hey!

As this is a report based on Goals, I am not sure I can add any new Goals Properties that are just a date field type nor can I change the type of report.

Hey @DCrinnion1! It looks like you are using a single-object report, whereas @Jigar_Thakker is using the custom report builder.

Hey @kennedyp! So I’ve tried to make a custom report builder but don’t have the option of goals for data sources in custom report building?

Hey @DCrinnion1 -- good catch. The Goals object is not available in the custom report builder, so we won’t be able to use the cumulative suggestion by @Jigar_Thakker

I want to invite some subject matter experts to see if they have any suggestions.

Hey @Shadab_Khan , @TomM2, @Josh do you have any thoughts on this?

If you remove State Datetime and the add it back, “Cumulative” then becomes available in the overall visualization Display Options on the upper right.

@kennedyp thanks for the tag!

Hi @DCrinnion1

Yeah, I’ve run into this before. From what I know, the custom report builder doesn’t really have that cumulative option, so you’re kinda limited to totals, averages, and stuff like that.

Just out of curiosity - what exactly are you trying to solve for in the end? If you can share a bit more on the outcome you’re aiming for, maybe I can help figure out a workaround or suggest something else that gets you close.

Stay Awesome & Keep Doing it BIG :fire:
