Purpose-fit chart selection
The AI can select standard or 100% stacks, keep segment colors stable, calculate shares, handle missing combinations, and use a consistent category order.
Create standard or 100% stacked columns from spreadsheet data to show how a small number of segments contribute across categories or time. ExcelDashboard AI handles aggregation, ordering, percentage calculation, and labels.

Why it matters
Showing how composition and total magnitude change across a modest number of categories or discrete periods with a few consistently defined segments.
Avoid stacked columns for dense time series, too many segments, long category labels, or tasks requiring precise comparison of segments that do not share a baseline.
Capabilities
The AI can select standard or 100% stacks, keep segment colors stable, calculate shares, handle missing combinations, and use a consistent category order.
One category or discrete period field, one segment field, and one numeric measure, or several compatible measure columns with consistent units and definitions.
Specify sums, averages, counts, rates, time intervals, and filters so the values behind the visual remain inspectable.
Refine titles, labels, colors, annotations, and chart type, then reuse the visual in a dashboard or report.
How it works
Start with Excel, CSV, or a table and confirm that headers, numeric values, categories, and dates were interpreted correctly.
One category or discrete period field, one segment field, and one numeric measure, or several compatible measure columns with consistent units and definitions. Explain the audience and the question the chart should answer.
Check the values, labels, scale, and filters. Avoid stacked columns for dense time series, too many segments, long category labels, or tasks requiring precise comparison of segments that do not share a baseline.
Common use cases
Show total leads or revenue and how channel contribution changes from month to month.
Compare product-category contribution across quarters while retaining the overall total.
Display how teams or work types contribute to total planned capacity across periods.
