Generating Distribution Charts

This procedure explains how to generate a Distribution chart of items grouped in the upper pane. A Distribution chart displays in the form of a pie chart. Each wedge indicates what fraction of the whole a group represents.

You can filter out data in the upper pane to display only the data that you want to include in your chart. In addition, you can select specific items from the filtered data to include in your chart. A maximum of 60 fields can be displayed in the upper pane.

Note: You can only generate a Distribution or Time-series chart for audit entries
  1. Click a component tab in the upper pane and select an item.
  2. Sort/Group the data on the selected tab in the upper pane.
  3. Right-click in the upper pane and choose Charts > Distribution . The Distribution Chart dialog box opens.
  4. Type a name for the chart in the Chart Name field.
  5. Select which data to use for generating the chart. If you have selected specific items in the upper pane to chart, select Current Selection. Otherwise, use Select All.
  6. Select a printer page orientation: Portrait or Landscape.
  7. Click OK.
Note: If the chart has too much data on it to be readable, increase the size of the chart window, or decrease the number of items in the chart.
