    Sometimes Salesforce has custom instances for demo / pre-release /webinars like GS which is not mentioned in trust, The one you mentioned UM seems like the same.

  • @PranayJaiswal what is 'GS' -- also does that mean it will change to an 'EU' instance after the pre-release? Is there any documentation to support this? Email: ATTENTION: Your new instance name will be UM4 following the instance refresh on January 19 status.salesforce.com/maintenances/28535

    According to GDPR stuff I heard, EU data should be inside EU no matter what, after brexit that wont be the case so I dont know if UM should even be considered for your org migration. The best bet is to raise a case or mail your account manager

What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

Image
0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?

Ne doit pas être confondu avec trompette de poche. Trompette piccolo en si bémol, avec des branches d'embouchure différentes pour le si bémol (la plus courte) ou la (la plus longue) Trompette piccolo La trompette piccolo est la plus petite de la famille des trompettes. Elle joue une octave plus haut que la trompette standard en si bémol. La plupart des trompettes piccolo sont conçues pour jouer dans les deux tonalités de si bémol ou la, en utilisant une branche d'embouchure différente pour chaque tonalité. Le tube de la trompette piccolo en si bémol a une longueur moitié de celle de la trompette normale en si bémol. Des trompettes piccolo en sol, fa, ut sont également fabriquées, mais elles sont rares. La trompette soprano en ré, aussi connu comme la « trompette Bach », a été inventée vers 1890 par le facteur belge Victor-Charles Mahillon pour jouer les parties hautes de la trompette dans la musique de Bach et Haendel.
