A Chart is a way to visualize report data.

Configure

To configure a chart:

1. Under Admin > Company > Reports, first configure a report that includes the data you want to chart. See the Reports (Admin) article for more information.
2. Under Admin > Company > Charts, click the New Chart button. 
3. A new row will display. Enter the information:
   1. Name - The name of the chart that will display in the Models > Viewer > Charts tab.

   3. Report - Select the report that includes data for the chart. Your report can only include one Report Field so the the report will provide a list of items with the quantity of each. Below is an example chart report:

      1. Format - Set the Format = CSV.
      2. Part Filter - You can apply a part filter to the report.
      3. Assembly Filter - You can apply a assembly filter to the report.
      4. Header - The Header is the column heading. It is also used as the Series X or the X-axis in the chart.
      5. Sort Index - Enter
      the field that includes the X-axis data
      1. a 1 if you want to sort the report data items alphabetically.
      2. Merge Like Values - Set to Yes in order to group the data items together.
      3. Show Quantity - Set to Yes to provide a total number of that item.
         
         
      4. Run the report in the Models Viewer to see the data you are charting. For example:
         Image Added
         
         
   4. Series X - Enter the name of the Header used in the Report.
   5. Series Y - Enter the field that includes the Y-axis data. This will almost always be Quantity. This is because when Show Quantity is set to Yes, STRATUS automatically includes a Quantity field in the report.
4. You might end up with a several charts similar to these:

5. Once done, run the chart in the Models > Viewer > Charts tab.
