  • The key field in the chart is the Measurement.

  • You can include a comparison measurement to make a comparison (small figures).

  • a distribution field can be very useful when creating a set of indicators that iterates over a particular category.

In the case of the numeric fields used in the measurement, the sprocket for the measurement field will let you configure measurement mode. This will let you select what needs to be calculated, based on that numeric field. Available calculations are:

  • number of items (Number)

  • item average (Average)

  • sum of items (Sum)

  • smallest item (Minimum)

  • biggest item (Maximum)
