This is a sample Dashboard based on Bicycle Sales data which is included with the product installation. It connects to a simple local cube file - BicycleSales.cub.

User Selections

User selections are through two slicers, on Month and PoS. The grids in the workbook select the slicer directly; the formulae are based on the cells which the slicer updates.

The Time Slicer updates $D$2, the PoS Slicer updates $G$2.

KPI table is in cells (B5:G13)

  1. Consists of an XLCubed Grid (B5:D13)
    1. Grid header area is hidden in grid properties – appearance
    2. Time and PoS are in the header area, and select the respective slicers
    3. Sparkline is based on selected month plus previous 11 members
  2. and XLCubed cube and chart formulae (E5:G13)
    1. Variance % column uses an XL3Link() to allow the user to jump to detail on the selected KPI
    2. Bullet Graph in column G, built through an in-cell chart formula, is based on the Target YTD%
       Region Table is in cells (B18:G24)
  1. Consists of an XLCubed grid (B18:F24), and and an in-cell chart formula (G18)
    1. Time and PoS are in the header area, and select the respective slicers

Top 10 Regions / Products

  1. Xl3RankLookup and ValueRankLookup formulae
  2. Product also uses XL3Link() to jump to detail
       Product Groups & HeatMap 
  1. Built from XLCubed formula based data on hidden sheets

Variance Analysis Sheet

  1. Built using one XLCubed grid, with embedded in-cell charting
    1. It is restricted by the Pos and Time slicers
    2. For Key Figures, it uses VarianceAnalysis!D3 , which is populated by the XL3Link formulae on the KPI table within the Dashboard sheet.
    3. Contains an additional XL3Link in column E, contained within a grid calculation, to allow jump to detail on the selected product.

Time Series Chart Sheet

This contains a detail table and chart of value and target for the selected period, product, PoS, and the Key figure passed in by the xl3Linkformulae in ‘Variance Analysis’!$E$9: $E$29. Cell $O$8 is based on the selected month, and C:N use the XL3MemberNavigate() formula to choose the previous month.=, overall delivering a rolling 12 months.

Note that this could also be achieved in a grid, by driving the date hierarchy from $C$5 and choosing the ‘previous 11’
