Step 2: Reviewing Results and Creating Layouts
After you define the criteria for your analysis, you can edit the compound layout for the analysis in the Results tab of the analysis editor. When you first open the Results tab after selecting the criteria for a new analysis, the results are shown in a Table view. The Table view inherits the formats, sorting, and other options that you specified in the Criteria tab.
A Title view is also included. If you already saved the analysis, then the Title view shows the name of the analysis. Otherwise, the Title view is blank. You can edit the Title view and the Table view, or you can delete them if you wish. You can also add more views to the compound layout.
NOTE: If the criteria and filters that you set up for an analysis result in no data being returned, then no views are displayed when you first open the Results tab. Instead, a message is displayed. You can create a custom message that is displayed when no data is returned, for more information, see Creating Custom Messages for No Data in Analyses.
You can add multiple views to a compound layout. You can also create multiple compound layouts for a single analysis. For example, one compound layout might include a Graph view and a Title view, and another compound layout might include a Graph view and a Narrative view. When you add the analysis to a dashboard page, you can select the compound layout that you want to include on that page.
The following table describes the types of views that you can add to a compound layout for an analysis.
View
|
Description
|
Title
|
Use this view to include a title and subtitle, a saved name for the results, and a custom logo to identify the results, and timestamps. For result-specific help, you can include a URL that links to any HTML page or site that contains information about the analysis or the results.
|
Table
|
Use this view to display data in a column format. You can select to display a page of information at a time, which is convenient for larger result sets, and control the size of the page and the position of the paging controls. Table views are supported in a wide variety of formats and can include graphics, links, and so on.
|
Pivot Table
|
Use this view if you want to be able to take row, column and section headings and swap them around to obtain different perspectives. You can drag and drop headings to pivot results, preview them, and apply the settings. Users can navigate through pivot tables and drill down into information. Users can create complex pivot tables that show aggregate and nonrelated totals next to the pivoted data, allowing for flexible analysis. For an interactive result set, elements can be placed in pages, allowing users to select elements. Like the Table view, elements can be formatted.
|
Performance Tile
|
Use this view to display a single aggregate measure value that immediately reveals summary metrics that you might also present in more detail within a dashboard view.
Performance Tile views can help to do the following:
- Fokuser brukerens oppmerksomhet på enkle fakta basert på behov, direkte og fremtredende i flisen.
- Kommuniser status via enkel formatering ved hjelp av farge, etiketter og begrensede stiler eller via betinget formatering av bakgrunnsfargen eller målingsverdien for at flisen skal bli mer fremtredende. Hvis inntekten for eksempel ikke er i henhold til målet, vises inntektsverdien i rødt.
- Svar på ledetekster og filtre for å gjøre resultatene mer relevante for brukeren.
- Gi støtte for én enkelt, en aggregert eller en beregnet verdi.
|
Treemap
|
Use this view to display a space-constrained, two-dimensional visualization for hierarchical structures with multiple levels.
Treemap views have the following characteristics:
- De er begrenset av et forhåndsdefinert område og viser to nivåer med data.
- De kan inneholde rektangulære fliser. Størrelsen på flisen er basert på en måling, og fargen på flisen er basert på en annen måling.
- De ligner på punktdiagrammer ved at tilordningsområdet er begrenset og at diagrammet kan vise store datamengder og raskt identifisere trender og uregelmessigheter i dataene.
|
Trellis
|
Use this view to display multidimensional data as a set of cells in a grid, with each cell displaying a subset of data shown as graphs or numbers.
The following types of Trellis views are available:
- Enkelt flettverk. Enkle flettverksvisninger passer hvis du vil sammenligne vekstrater i et datasett. En enkel flettverksvisning viser én enkelt indre diagramtype, for eksempel et rutenett med flere stolpediagrammer. De indre diagrammene bruker alltid en felles akse, slik at diagrammene har en synkronisert skala.
- Avansert flettverk. Avanserte flettverksvisninger passer hvis du vil overvåke trender og se mønstre i et datasett. En avansert flettverksvisning viser et rutenett med små miniatyrdiagrammer. Målinger kan vises som tall eller fremstilles i forskjellige typer miniatyrdiagrammer. I en avansert flettverksvisning fungerer hver målingskolonne uavhengig for drilling, akseskalering og så videre.
|
Graph
|
Use this view to display numeric information visually, which makes it easier to understand large quantities of data. You can control the title, the location of the legend, axis titles, and data labels in the Graph view. You can also control the size and scale of the graph, and control colors using a style sheet. In addition, you can drill down into the results. A graph is displayed on a background, called the graph canvas.
|
Gauge
|
Use this view to show results as gauges, such as dial, bar, and bulb-style gauges. Due to its compact size, a gauge is often more effective than a graph for displaying a single data value. As well as displaying the data visually, a gauge also displays the result in numeric form.
Gauges identify problems in data. A gauge usually plots one data point with an indication of whether that point falls in an acceptable or unacceptable range. Thus, gauges are useful for showing performance against goals.
Depending on the data in the analysis, a Gauge view might consist of multiple gauges in a gauge set. For example, if you create a Gauge view to show the sales data for the last twelve months, the Gauge view consists of twelve gauges, one for each month. If you create a Gauge view to show the total sales in the country, then the Gauge view consists of one gauge.
A gauge or gauge set is displayed on a background, called the gauge canvas.
|
Funnel
|
Use this view to display a three-dimensional graph that represents target and actual values using volume, level and color. It is useful for depicting target values that decline over time, such as a sales pipeline.
|
Map
|
Use this view to display records that contain addresses as data points on a map. Information from the analysis appears as tooltip text when users rest their pointer on the data points.
|
Filters
|
Use this view to show the filters that are in effect for the analysis.
|
Selection Steps
|
Use this view to display the selection steps that are in effect for the analysis. Selection steps, like filters, allow you to obtain results that answer particular questions.
Selection steps are applied after the query is aggregated.
|
Column Selector
|
Use column selectors to allow users to dynamically change which columns are displayed in the analysis. This allows users to analyze data along several dimensions and dynamically alter the content of the results.
|
View Selector
|
Use this view to allow users to select a specific view of the results from among the saved views. When placed on a dashboard, the View Selector view appears as a drop-down list where users can make a selection.
|
Legend
|
Use this view to document the meaning of special formatting used in results, such as the meaning of custom colors applied to gauges.
|
Narrative
|
Use this view to display the results as one or more paragraphs of text. You can enter a sentence with placeholders for each column in the results, and specify how rows should be separated. You can incorporate custom HTML or JavaScript to specify how information is displayed.
|
Ticker
|
Use this view to display the results as a ticker or marquee, similar in style to the stock tickers that run across many financial sites on the Web. This view is useful for calling attention to results and for late-breaking information. You can control what information is presented and how it scrolls across the page. This view supports a variety of formats and can include graphics, links, and so on.
|
Static Text
|
Use this view to include static text in the results. You can use HTML to include banners, tickers, Active-X objects, Java applets, links, instructions, descriptions, graphics, and so on, in the results.
