Terms
The Compare page lets you compare metrics over time to help you identify any impact one metric may have had on another - for example, the effect an increase of sales may have on ticket times.

You can also compare data from a selected date range to a previous date range for any metric selection. The time comparisons are shown in both the data charts and data tables on the page. The charts show the comparison date range as a dotted line and the current data as a solid line. When a metric is also being compared, the time comparison is shown in the popover when you hover your mouse over the chart.

You can select two metrics to be shown in the data chart.

Compare a time range
You can add a time range comparison to any metric or when two metrics are being compared.

Group your data by time unit
You can select the unit of time that the data is grouped by. The grouping options that are displayed depend on the date range that you've selected. For example, if you select a single day as your date range, you can choose to group your data by hour, or daypart. If you select multiple days as your date range, you can choose to group your data by day or by aggregated daypart.
  1. Click the Group by menu and select a time unit.
