Visualizations available in Planning Analytics Workspace

The following visualizations can be created in Planning Analytics Workspace.

Advanced selector
The Advanced selector widget has multiple selectors with the same hierarchy that lets you pick members from different groups to form a set and supports one-way synchronization. The multiple selector feature in the Advanced selector lets you easily compare members, view data for a range of members, or create a multiple selection list.
Area
Use an area visualization to emphasize the magnitude of change over time.
Bar
Use a bar visualization to compare values by one or more columns, such as sales for products or sales for products each month.
Box plot
You can use box plot visualizations to identify outliers and compare distributions.
Bubble
Use a bubble visualization to show relationships among columns that contain numeric values, such as revenue and profit.
Bullet
Use bullet charts to show measures that need to be compared against a target value.
Column
Use a column visualization to compare values by one or more columns, such as sales for products or sales for products each month.
Data player
Use a data player to see an animation of the impact of a column on the other visualizations.
Heat map
Use a heat map visualization to visualize the relationship between columns, represented in a matrix type view.
Hierarchy bubble
Use a hierarchy bubble visualization when you want to show relationships among columns that contain values, such as net loss. It is similar to the bubble visualization but the bubbles are tightly packed instead of spread over a grid. The bubbles use nesting to represent the hierarchy. A hierarchy bubble visualization shows a large amount of data in a small space.
Legacy map
Use a legacy map when you want to see patterns in your data by geography.
Line
Use a line visualization to show trends over time.
Line and column
Use a line and column visualization to highlight relationships between multiple data series by combining bars and lines with one visualization.
List
Use a list visualization to create an overview of data in an hierarchical way.
Map
Use a Map when you want to see patterns in your data by geography. Data is mapped by matching the location name on the map with a location in your data.
Marimekko
A marimekko visualization is similar to a stacked column visualization. It shows data through varying heights and includes an added dimension of data through varying column widths. The width of the columns is based on the value that is assigned to the width field. Individual segment height is a percentage of the respective column total value.
Network
Use a network visualization when you want to see the connections among columns in your data A network visualization is a good choice to show connections, networks, and points of intersection.
Packed bubble
Use a packed bubble visualization when you want to show relationships among columns that contain numeric values, such as revenue. It is similar to the bubble visualization but the bubbles are tightly packed instead of spread over a grid. A packed bubble visualization shows a large amount of data in a small space.
Pie
Use a pie visualization to highlight proportions. Each slice shows the relative relationship of each part to the whole.
Point
Use a point visualization to show trends over time.
Radar
Use a radar visualization for comparing multiple quantitative variables. The radar visualization shows which variables have similar values or if there are any outliers amongst each variable.
Radial
In a radial visualization, each bar appears in a circle with longer bars that represent larger values. Hover over a bar to see the details about it, such as the exact value represented by the bar. Each bar starts at 12 noon and goes in a clockwise direction for positive values and counterclockwise for negative values.
Scatter
Scatter visualizations use data points to plot two measures anywhere along a scale, not only at regular tick marks.
Selector
A Selector is a unique type of visualization that you can use to pick members, sets, or levels for a view (either exploration or visualization).
Single cell
Use the single cell visualization to highlight the value of a selected cell or to enter data to this cell.
Stacked bar
Use a stacked bar visualization to compare the proportional contributions for each item to the total, such as sales for products and sales for products each month.
Stacked column
Use a stacked column visualization to compare the proportional contributions for each item to the total, such as sales for products and sales for products each month.
Treemap
Use a tree map visualization to identify patterns and exceptions in a large, complex data asset.
Waterfall
Use a waterfall visualization to understand the cumulative effect a series of positive and negative values have on an initial value. The bars in a waterfall visualization are not totals.
Word cloud
Use a word cloud visualization when you want to see a text-based visualization of a column. The text height represents the scale. The name itself is the different members of the column.
