Answer / rao

Yes it is possible, we can drop many measures in cross as many we want.
For this, you can drop revenue under year and after this you can drop sales (2nd measure) on right side or left side of revenue when black cursor blinks.
you can drop other measures also in this way.
Hopes it will help.
