hi amber personal hooker with a video
walkthrough
up yet another feature all back to
reports over creating a chart
that start by creating a new summary
report for the employee sales
will use the sample active fumes data
model
a summary report will typically have a
chart with some
aggregate information are tracked sealed
are in invoices
so we'll use the invoice entity and drag
it to a report page
since we're going to be comparing
categories in this case employees
let's use a bar chart after reports over
automatically
select the aggregates for us we can
going to change that by dragging
additional attributes but we will leave
it as it is for the time being
we do want to see the employees be
sealed
so will change the had agreed to employ
full name
by selecting it from the drop-down let's
change your chart labels and the car
title to finish off the summary report
finally let's see what this report looks
like and save it so that we can use it
in the future
at we just saw how the drag-and-drop
features
above the report designer make adding
any of the chart pipes available
very intuitive to the business user
familiar business views
make understanding and relating to the
data easier
the business user can just focus on
creating sophisticated reports
and preview print or save them
instantly that's just somewhat active
reports over can do for you
