Introduction

Charts are a powerful tool for visualizing data, making complex information easier to understand and analyze. They offer a clear visual representation that helps in spotting trends, comparing performance, and making faster decisions.

In TeamTracks, charts can be accessed on their own or as part of a larger dashboard. Beyond adding visual clarity, charts offer several valuable features:

  • Export as Image: Download charts as PNG files for presentations or reports.

  • In-Platform Analysis: Click the chart to see detailed data in a list view within TeamTracks.

  • Export Data for Analysis: Download chart data as CSV or Excel files for deeper analysis.

Charts also have full role-based access control, making it easy to manage who can see or use them. You can add extra security by adjusting view settings directly on the chart, which is helpful when working with sensitive data.

All charts have some general settings, along with additional options that vary depending on the chart type. With this feature, you can create five different types of charts:

Chart Type

Displays data as slices of a circle, showing parts of a whole.

Bar chart

Line chart

Plots data points connected by lines, showing trends over time.

Stacked bar chart

Shows parts of a whole within bars, stacking categories on top of each other.

Card chart

This feature allows users to click on the chart and view a detailed report of the underlying data in a list format. This provides agents a way to explore the data at a more granular level.

Note: Users must have access permissions to view the display views of the object.
