Sales, Attendees & Payment Insights
On the right, you can see the sales volume from each payment gateway represented in both a pie chart and a horizontal bar chart.
- The pie chart at the top illustrates the overall distribution of payments.
- The horizontal bar charts below display the percentage and exact amount for each payment method individually.
On the left, there is a Dual-Axis Line Chart, which presents two sets of data over a specific time period:
- The left axis represents Attendees (yellow).
- The right axis represents Sales (blue).
This chart is useful for comparing trends between two related variables, such as sales and event attendees. The line chart also includes filtering options, allowing you to refine data based on Locations, Organizers, and Categories for a more detailed analysis.
