A Scatter Chart displays values as individual points on a graph using two axes. Each point represents a record based on its X-axis and Y-axis values. It is used to compare two numeric fields and see how values are distributed.
¶ 1. How a Scatter Chart Works
- Each record is plotted as a point on the chart.
- The X-axis represents one numeric field.
- The Y-axis represents another numeric field.
- The position of each point shows the relationship between the two values.
- This makes it easy to compare data distribution across records.
¶ 2. How to Create a Scatter Chart
After completing the initial setup for chart reports, configure the Scatter chart using the following steps from the Chart Configuration page:
