Period-over-period workflow

Sigma’s guided workflow for building period-over-period analyses provides a quick and convenient way to evaluate performance over time. Generate dynamic period comparisons without entering complex custom formulas, then easily visualize the results to identify trends, patterns, and anomalies.

Workbook features

Bulk column relocation

When interacting with a data element or input table, you can now bulk relocate multiple columns using the Move to action in the column menu. This functionality is available in the Element properties panel and directly in the element.

Bug fixes

  • When the Comparison property is configured in a KPI chart, both the comparison value and label are now hidden if the referenced benchmark or target value is null.
