Multi axis chart

Multi-axis charts plot multiple measures with different value ranges on separate axes within a single visual. Use them to compare related metrics and identify trends, without losing context. Separate axes preserve the scale of each measure, making it easier to identify trends, correlations, and performance across shared dimension categories.

Multi-axis charts are best suited for comparing measures with significantly different scales, such as revenue and profit margin, sales and order count, or production volume and defect rate.
