Charts
The application includes many useful charts for the different stages of software production. Most system modules have several related charts. For example, while viewing tasks you can open the related charts from the "Charts" drop-down menu.
You can create your own charts. Choose "Create chart" and specify which attributes to plot on which axes and which aggregate functions to use. The application can build:
- pie charts, for example {X = Assignee, Y = Assignee, Aggregation = Count} for a chart of how tasks are distributed among assignees
- bar charts, for example {X = Assignee, Y = Priority, Aggregation = none} for a chart of how tasks are distributed by assignee and priority
- area charts that show how attributes change over time, for example {X = Date, ...}
To print charts, use your browser's built-in features.
Like other modules, charts can be added to the "Favorites" menu or to a dashboard.
Charts and sets of charts can be placed not only on a dashboard, but also directly in modules, on the additional panel on the right.
Use the "Add" button in the "Charts" section of the additional panel on the right to add the charts you need. They are built from the row selected on the left. Use the "Filter" field to set the search query that draws the chart. For example, the query ?DocumentId = "outer-id" is turned into ?DocumentId = "123", where 123 is the identifier of the row selected on the left. Charts therefore show data that belongs to the selected row. This lets you build parameterized dashboards.
