Pie Chart

A pie chart is a type of graph that represents data as a circle divided into slices. Each slice represents a proportion of the whole, and the size of the slice corresponds to the magnitude of the proportion. Use Pie charts for better display of percentages and fractions of a total.

Functions

Applying a mathematical function to all values in each group, e.g. get a total of all values, applying a filter later in the configuration will limit the function to work only on the values from records which match the filter.

Sum will calculate the total of all values in each group.
Average will calculate the mathematical average of all values in each group.
Max will retrieve the Maximum value in each group
Min will retrieve the Minimum value in each group
Count will count the records which has a value in the selected field

Count is the only function that accepts all types of fields.

Value

This is where you select the field that you want the function to run on.

Grouping

Select a field to group the data by, each group will be represented by a slice.
If you groupe by a date field you can also set frequency

Frequency can Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Yearly
Each slice will represent a time frame determined by the frequency (e.g. if you select weekly, each slice will represent a week.)

Display Limit

Limit how many slices are displayed in the chart.
The maximum number of slices you can see in the chart at a time is 100.
If there are more groups than the limit the rest of the groups will be all gathered under one slice called others.
To better control which slices are showing you can use a mix of Filters and Sorting.

Sorting

You can sort your slices either by

Value, which will sort based on comparing the value represented in the slices.
Legend, which will sort based on groups labels.
