Charts
()

Charts and tables are sheet objects that can show numbers very compactly. It is possible e.g. to
show sums of money, distributed over different fields such as year, month, account number, etc.
Charts and tables can be set to display either the frequencies of different values of a field, or a
calculated entity, e.g. the sum of the possible values of a field. In both cases, a certain field must be
chosen as x-axis, i.e. this field will be used to label the slices of the pie, the different bars in the bar
chart and the rows in the pivot table, respectively.

The Different Chart Types Available

The chart types you can choose between are bar chart, pie chart, combo chart, scatter chart, line
chart, radar chart, grid chart, gauge chart, block chart, funnel chart, pivot table, straight table, and
