Building Graph Cards• Terminology– Message ( information to display in the label)– Series • Content (customer invoices)• Series Size (number of records to include) • Subset (selected records)• Sort (the order in which to present the data)
– Sample• Values to Use in the chart
• Terminology (continued)– Options (graph format)– Labels(how to display data names )– Linking (relating data to the graph)

Series
Message = data to display on the labelSeries size = number of records selected (eg. 10 for top 10 report)Subset = the records to include (eg. Open orders)Sort = display sequence (very important for top 10 graph)
Sample = Chart Values

graphs. Bar graphs are great for comparison, such as
showing planned and actual data side-by-side. Stacked bars go one better, by letting the bar
itself represent multiple data elements.
