Guidelines for Creating Bar Graphs

The following guidelines apply when creating bar graphs and stacked bar graphs using the Graph Wizard.

To plot a bar graph, you must, at a minimum, select fields for the following:

•
One data value and one category label
- OR -
•
Two or more data values
General Rules for Bar Graphs

The following are general rules that apply when you create a bar graph:

•
Fields selected as category labels are used to label the bars on the vertical axis.
•
Fields selected as series labels are used to determine the color of the bar and the caption in the graph.
•
Data values determine the size of a particular bar. The fields that you select should reflect statistical values.
•
You can select one data value and one series label, or you can select two or more data values. However, you cannot select multiple data values and a series label.
Examples of Valid Axis Selections for Bar Graphs

In the first three examples, the selected data source is Servers - Server Activity Totals. In the fourth example, the data source is Storage - Exchange Database Summary.

Two or more data values

One or more category labels

The fields selected as the category labels are used to categorize the values on the vertical axis.

Each category has a bar for each data value. The legend title contains the field display-name.

In this example, the following data source and fields (values) were used:

Datasource:
Servers - Server Activity Totals

Data Values:
External User Messages Received

Guidelines for Creating Pie Charts

The following guidelines apply when creating pie charts and multi-pie charts using the Graph Wizard.

To create a pie chart, you must, at a minimum, select fields for the following:

•
One data value and one category label
- OR -
Two or more data values
General Rules for Pie Charts

The following are general rules that apply when you create a pie chart:

•
Data values determine the relative size of wedges in each pie.
•
Fields selected as series labels determine the color of the pie wedge, and what information is displayed in the legend of the pie chart.
•
You can display multiple pies within a pie chart by selecting a Multi-Pie Selection field, or by selecting two or more data values and at least one series label. The values of the Multi-Pie Selection field determine to which pie a particular data value belongs.
Examples of Valid Axis Selections for Pie Charts

In the first three examples of pie charts, the selected data source is Mailboxes - Mailbox Activity Details. In the fourth example, the data source is Storage - Exchange Database Summary.

Guidelines for Creating XY Graphs

The following guidelines apply when creating XY graphs and XY stacked area graphs using the Graph Wizard.

To generate an XY or stacked area graph, you must, at a minimum, select fields for the following:

•
one X-axis (horizontal) value
•
one Y-axis (vertical) value
General Rules for XY Graphs

The following are general rules that apply when you create a XY graph:

•
The X and Y values determine successive points on a line.
•
In most cases, the X-axis value is a date or time field.
•
The series label values determine with which line the point is associated.
Examples of Valid Axis Selections for XY Graphs

In the XY graph examples, the data source is Mailboxes - Mailbox Activity Details.
