Creating your First Scorecard
After Login (on the Dashboard tab) click on the "Add Chart" button in the "Create New Dashboard" dialog, or click on the plus (+) button in the "Edit Dashboard" dialog. The setting section has 8 parts namely:
1. Access the Dashboard
2. Choose the Chart Type
3. Add a Chart Tag
4. Add a Chart Title
5. Add a Chart Description
6. Add Units (Optional)
7. Display Variation (Optional)
8. Add a Query
To start creating your Scorecard chart, you'll first need to access your dashboard. If you don't have a dashboard yet, you'll need to create one. Once you're in your dashboard, click on the "Add Chart" button if you're in the "Create New Dashboard" dialog, or click on the plus (+) button if you're in the "Edit Dashboard" dialog.
A dialog box will appear for you to select the type of chart you want to create. From the dropdown menu, select "Scorecard".
Next, you'll need to add a chart tag. This tag should be related to the Scorecard you're creating. For example, if you're creating a Scorecard for Number of visits , you might choose a tag like "nbr_of_visits".
Now, add a title for your chart. This title should represent what the chart is about. For example, if your Scorecard is total number of visits, you might choose a title like "Nbr of visits".
It's always a good idea to add a description for your chart. This helps other users understand what the chart is about and what the query does. For example, for this description "Count of visits to a customer. A visit is defined as check in and check out from a mobile to a customer".
The "Units to Display" feature allows you to specify the units of measure for your metric. This can be particularly useful for providing context to the data being displayed. For example, you might specify units such as kilograms (kg), grams (g), US Dollars (USD), etc. If you want to use this feature, simply enter the appropriate units in this step. However, this is optional and can be left blank if it's not applicable to your chart for example when.
The "Display Variation" toggle button allows you to show the percentage change in your data from the last period. This can be particularly useful for tracking trends over time and identifying significant changes in your key metrics. However, this is optional and can be left disabled if it's not applicable to your chart.
Finally, you'll need to add a query that will fetch the data from the respective table. This query should return one column to display on the Scorecard. Make sure to test your query to ensure it returns the expected results.
Add your filters accordingly
And that's it! You've created your first Scorecard chart. Remember, you can always edit your chart later if you need to make changes or adjustments.
