In this step-by-step Excel tutorial, we'll create a dynamic and interactive Excel dashboard from scratch. We'll be comparing Actuals to Budget and Previous year data. The Actual data is on another sheet in an Excel table and it has a different structure so we have to use an Excel formula that enables us to lookup values in three different columns and match them so we can find the correct row. You can use different formulas. I used XLOOKUP but you can also use Index and Match ([ Ссылка ]) in case you don't have XLOOKUP. Our next challenge is to bring over budget data from another sheet. This time we have to match the rows and the columns. Again, you can use Index Match or XLOOKUP (I show the XLOOKUP approach).

I also show you how add a drop-down for months and use a formula to grab the current year.
Then I move on to variance calculations (percentage change). Once we have the information we create a column chart to compare actual and previous year data and also add Excel bar charts to show the variance. We make sure that positive values (bars) are in green and negative bars are in red. We do this dynamically of course using "invert if negative" feature of Excel charts. Lots to cover, so get ready to transform your understanding of actual sales, budget figures, and variances into a visually stunning and informative dashboard.
