Good visualisations visualizations help to understand data better and to identify patterns or trends.
With our graphomate suite and the graphomate tiles for various BI tools, we have given our customers the possibility to formulate a standard of visualisation visualization and to visualise visualize data in an appropriate and meaningful way. By creating a "visual context", decision-makers can better understand the business situation. Another aspect is the enrichment of reports and dashboards with textual content. One would like to be able to add explanatory text to data constellations that require explanation. Our graphomate comments provide this possibility on different levels: Comments as independent text objects
A separate comment component freely positionable standalone custom widget provides space for entering to enter explanatory text for a specific data constellation. Comments are stored with the creator and date of creation date and are displayed when the data constellation is called up againrecalled. For example:
"The EBIT for the whole organisation decreased in the month of May 2022 because an extraordinary depreciation was booked due to a fire in a warehouse". Data point comments
Data point comments describe explain a specific set of data value in a graph or tablea graphomate suite component. The presence of a comment is indicated by a small comment icon on the chart element or in the table cell: "Revenues in the month of May 2022 are 20% higher due to the invoicing of the major project 'Airport'."
The presence of a comment is indicated by a small comment icon on the chart element or in the table cell:  Comments on a visualisationvisualization
Comments on a visualisation can also be saved as titles in a visualization component of the graphomate suite.
It is not Not a single data point that is to be commented, but , for example, a temporal development as a whole a recognisable trend or pattern should be described in the title or in the footer of the component. Comments can be displayed in full These comments are displayed either as full text or in the form of an icon.
Comments are always entered via an identical input field that opens on request. Important: A prerequisite for entering comments is the definition of a so-called context. This context describes the space spanned by dimensions and key figures as well as other restrictions for the graphomate comments. Within this space, all characteristics of the selected dimensions and key figures can be commented freely.
The graphomate comments also offer the possibility to inform users about a comment by e-mail. During the second half of 2023, we want to map content-related permissions at the context level and work on a workflow concept - for example, for the approval of comments. |
