Common Fields section

The following fields apply to most chart types:

Title field

The name of the portfolio view. The title can contain up to 255 characters, and it does not have to be unique.

A visual indicator appears before the title to help you identify the type of view and determine whether it is available to just you or shared globally by all users. For example, you might see the user histogram icon for a personal histogram called Spending for My Projects, and the global histogram icon for a shared histogram called Spending for All Projects. This is also the name that appears in the title bar of the portlet.

If you change the type to Scorecard, the information that displays on the page changes so you can input scorecard details.
