Bump Chart in Tableau

Using Bump Chart, we can compare one dimension against another dimension using one measure value.

For Example: In the below visual you can compare Product Sub Categories against Segments basis of sum of sales.

Steps to Create BumpChart in Tableau :

We are using in this example, sample superstore dataset provided by tableau.

• • Drag Sub-Category in columns
  • Sales in Rows

• Apply Rank formula in Rows, RANK(SUM(SALES))

• Create Line Chart
• Drag Segment over Color shelf
• Compute RANK(SUM(SALES)) by segment
• Create secondary field using RANK(SUM(SALES))

• Sort Axis by smallest to largest
• Synchronize Axis
• Change second RANK(SUM(SALES)) axis as Circle Shape
• Drag RANK(SUM(SALES)) over labels
