Days · Time

See every day of the year at a glance

Daily numbers hide in line charts. A line of 365 points shows the trend, but not that Mondays are always busy, that the week before Easter was quiet, or that one Tuesday in March broke every record. People end up building twelve matrices by hand, one per month.

What it shows

Days draws a calendar with one small square per day and colours each square by your measure: light for little, dark fjord blue for a lot. Weekly rhythms show up as stripes, holidays as pale gaps and peaks as dark squares. One day stands out with a dark outline and a caption such as “17 March: 61 tickets”.

  • Months: one small calendar per month, side by side, as on a wall planner.
  • Weeks in a row: one long strip per year, weeks as columns and weekdays as rows.

How to set it up

Add Days from AppSource or the .pbiviz file, then drag in:

Date
Your date column. Pick the column itself, not “Date Hierarchy” (right-click the field in the Date well and choose its name). Text dates and date keys such as 20260317 work too.
Value
The number to show per day, such as tickets, sales or visits. Several rows on one day are added together.

In the report

  • Hover a day for its date and value.
  • Click a day to filter the rest of the report, Ctrl+click for several, or click a month name to pick the whole month.
  • When you select something in another visual, days with none of it fade, and the rest are coloured by the selected part only.
  • The report’s number format, light or dark background and high-contrast mode.
  • Tab into the calendar, move a day or a week at a time with the arrow keys, Enter to select, Escape to clear.
  • Month and weekday names follow the report’s language; the format pane is in English and Norwegian.

Free features always work, with no key and no tag. Pro features need a licence key for Days or Everything. Without a valid key, the calendar shows the latest 12 months, weeks starting on Monday and the sequential scale, with a short notice and a “Try Pro free” button. A paid key keeps Pro working for 7 days after it runs out, so a late renewal never breaks a report.

Your data stays in your report

Days makes no network calls and stores nothing outside the report. The licence key is checked inside the visual, so it also works offline, in Report Server and in locked-down tenants.
