Adding Remarks for Analysis

  • Last update:  2024-02-27
  • Overview

    Application Scenario

    1. The created dashboard is used by viewers, but it is often difficult for them to understand the calculation logic and indicator meanings of the dashboard data by sight, as well as the analysis purpose of the visualization chart. Therefore, the viewers need to ask the dashboard creator, which incurs high communication costs. The Remarks function can help the viewers quickly understand the meanings behind the dashboard data and better utilize the results of data visualization.

    2. When you are creating a component, you may add a calculation indicator with complex functions and formulas. However, others who reuse this component may not understand the calculation logic and need to spend a lot of time communicating with the creator. In this case, adding Remarks during the calculation can be helpful.

    3. Dashboard viewers do not know which is the data table used by the component, nor do they know the latest update time of the data table. Therefore, they are unsure if the data is correct. In this case, they can click Remarks for more details.

    Function Description

    You can add remarks to key steps during creating and processing components, such as calculations, filtering, and so on.

    At the same time, you can also make remarks on the visual components to explain the meaning of the charts so that viewers can understand the meaning of data through these remarks when using the visualization dashboard.

    Viewers can click the icon to view the detailed data used by the components.

    Limitation

    1. Adding remarks is not available to other components and filter components.

    2. Adding remarks in the analysis area is not available to the chart component.

    Function Entry

    Sample Data: Contract Analysis Table in Data Center.

    You may want to calculate the proportion of contract amounts for different types of contracts, as well as the unit price of the contracts, and make remarks for these steps.
