Single series and multiple series in horizontal columns
The bar tile provides a horizontal chart expression for your data and includes smaller headings for the values and percentages linked to that information.
To create a bar tile, click the Actions button on the upper right of the Dashboard and choose Add New > Tile.
You can also clone any or repurpose an existing tile by clicking the Ellipsis on the existing tile and choosing Edit or Clone.
After selecting Create New Tile or Edit for an existing tile, populate a Tile Name and then use the drop-down selections to choose what data will be pulled into the tile. As shown in the example below, to get a salary run rate tile, we've selected "Salary Run Rate" from Jirav's KPI Library and compared our Actuals against our current Plan of Record for the prior month. The Preview area will update as you make selections to show what the tile will look like when finished.
Periodicity allows you to select Total.
The Range provides the user the ability to select varying lengths of time. It determines in what month(s) your capture will land in. For example, if you have an offset of -4, this means that you will look 4 months back. Say you have a starting date of September with an offset of -4, you would be looking (back) at data from May 1 forward.
Work on Formatting and modifying the Chart Colors of a specific data Series directly from the Dashboard Tile.
