Hi,

Currently the metric for which you want to compare multiple time periods and create the Percent Change metric needs to be in the column header (cfr next screenshot).

As a consequence you'll need to recreate multiple Percent Change metrics.

I would like to be able to add just one column 'Percent Change' in the next table:

This would save us a lot of time.

Thanks in advance,

Sarah

The idea can be ignored. Instead of creating calculated metrics and putting it left, I should have dragged the (underlying) segments over there,and the metric unique visitors at the top. In that case the Percent Change can be calculated, and I have my desired result.

Hi Sarah,

This idea is still needed! In your case the metrics are very similar: you're looking for the number of unique visitors who viewed your 5 different types of pages/do the 5 types of activities.

But when the metrics are completely different- there is no workaround. I'm currently having problems with the table below. The 'compare time periods' option is unavailable.

If you have any inputs for a solution- they'd be much appreciated
