The Visual page allows you to create charts or graphs using the information stored in the database.
This provides an alternate method of retrieving information from the Search page. While retaining accuracy.
By selecting a report type the page will modify to ask you for the appropriate data.
When selecting a year, make sure that the data you are looking for has already been added into the database either by fetching the reports or importing them.
You can select the type of chart you want from Chart Type followed by Calculation Type. Calculation Type is how you want to display the data along the main axis.
You can customize your chart by entering Chart Title, Horizontal Axis Title and Vertical Axis Title.
Select the Vendor you are interested in, and the corresponding data to retrieve. Finally select the Metric_Type corresponding to the metric you want to chart.
