Add a variation column between two values

A variation column lets you automatically calculate the difference between two numeric columns in a report. It's especially useful for comparing values like actual amounts vs. forecast, or any other pair of metrics you want to contrast directly in Embat — no exports or manual calculations needed.

1. Open the report you want to add the column to. 
2. Click Add column (or the "+" icon in the table header). 
3. Select the Variation column type. 
4. Choose Column A (e.g. Actual amount). 
5. Choose Column B (e.g. Forecast). 
6. The new column will automatically display the result of Column A – Column B. 
7. Name the column if you'd like and save your changes.

You can add as many variation columns as you need to the same report to compare different pairs of values.
