Hola jdedwerds,
I recently worked on a project where we needed to display KPI's of sales orders processed automatically, so beside showing the boring tables with the processed orders info and the percentage calculation in certain fields, I thought of adding a graph which is always more visually pleasing.
This time I have done it natively, it's true that we have had this tool for quite some time but I've rarely seen it used even in a standard apps - on the P41021 availability app and on some planning/production applications- and I don't understand why (it are not the most powerful charts for that there are other tools, but for simple cases use it should be enough)
It's true that we have other tools in the environment itself such as One View Reporting OVR or that KPI's are usuarlly analyzed in business with Business Intelligence BI tools, but why not give them a touch of color to our JDE applications??
The first thing to do is to insert a ChartControl in our form:
- bar_basic
- bar_basic_percent
- cluster_bar_basic
- combo_basic
- line_basic
- pie_basic
- pie_ontime
- stacked_bar_basic
- stacked_bar_ontime
The next thing I want to integrate are external charts from Google Charts, through a TextBlock and with the API's provided by Google. I'll try to make a POC, soon.
I hope you found it interesting and useful.
Best regards.
Alfredo.
