# Bar Chart

A **Bar Chart** is a graph that uses rectangular bars to represent data. It’s great for comparing values across different categories. each bar represents a category or group, with its height indicating the value of that category. The **horizontal axis (X-axis)** displays the categories being compared. The **vertical axis (Y-axis)** represents the statistical values associated with each category, allowing for easy comparison between them. This value could represent various metrics, such as **sum**, **average**, or **count** of objects within each category.

### Creating a Bar Chart

To create a **Bar Chart**, follow these steps:

- **Select Bar as the Chart Type**.
- The **Main Chart Field** lets you select the primary field for your bar chart. Each value in this field becomes a bar, representing a category.

> [!NOTE]
> Note:
> 
> When the Main Chart Field is a datetime field, you can set the time interval for displaying it on the axis. The available interval options are Year, Month, Day and Year and Month, allowing you to customize the granularity of data shown on the chart.

- The **Extra Chart Field** option lets you add a secondary comparison within each main category. For example, if the main chart field is Disposition, you can use the Extra Chart Field to break down each disposition by Province, adding an extra layer of detail. This allows you to compare groups within each main category.
- By default, the system assigns colors to the chart. However, if you want to customize colors for specific values, use the **Chart Color Mapping** option. If there’s an **Extra Chart Field**, color mapping will apply to its values; otherwise, it applies to the **Main Field**. Click the **+** icon to add a new color mapping, then:
  1. Select the **value** you want to color.
  2. Use the **color picker** to choose the color.

- **Aggregate Type**: Choose the type of statistic that will be used to create the bar chart. The available options are:
  - **Count** displays the number of occurrences.
  - **Sum** shows the total value.
  - **Average** displays the average value of the data.
  - **Median** displays the 50% percentile of the data.
  - **Min** displays the minimum value of the data.
  - **Max** displays the maximum value of the data.

> [!TIP]
> When "Sum", "Average", “Median“, “Min”, or “Max” is selected, an additional dropdown appears, allowing you to choose the specific field for these calculations.

- **Date Range**: To narrow down data to a specific period, select a date range. You can either set a custom interval or pick a predefined interval, such as the current year, month, week, or day.
- **Date Field**: After selecting a date range, choose the relevant date field for which you want to apply the time interval. The Date Field dropdown will display all available date and date-time fields for you to choose from.

### Few Examples

*Bar Chart with Main Chart Field Only*

In this chart, RMAs are grouped by Disposition, with each disposition type forming a separate bar. The height of each bar represents the number of RMAs within that specific disposition. To emphasize RMAs marked as "Assess," a custom color has been applied to the "Assess" bar, making it easily distinguishable from others.

*Bar chart with Extra Chart Field*

In this chart, RMAs are grouped by Disposition on the x-axis, with each bar split by Province. Each color in the bars represents a different province, and the legend identifies which color corresponds to which province, making it easy to compare RMA distribution across regions within each disposition category.

> [!TIP]
> Tip💡 :
> 
> You can click on the options displayed in the legend at the bottom to select or deselect specific provinces. This will automatically refresh the chart to reflect your selection, allowing you to focus on specific data segments within the categories.
