Visualizations are gaining more and more importance in regards to quick and safe communication. Information presented in a simple, yet meaningful way supports deciders to find patterns and deviations. Good information design can give you a quick and efficient overview of your business. The International Business Communication Standards (IBCS) are working as a ruleset of how meaningful visualizations are used most effectively for business reporting and dash boarding.

In addition to our graphomate charts and the graphomate tables we offer the graphomate bubbles as another component for SAP BusinessObjects Designer (furthermore „Designer"), which aligns itself with the IBCS concepts. Designer is the successor of the Web Application Designer (WAD) from the SAP BEx-Suite and tightly coupled with SAP BW. It uses HTML5 web technologies to produce BI Applications in the browser and as such does not restrict you to certain end devices, including mobile devices.

With our Designer extension graphomate bubbles we present a highly configurable visualization solution for this platform. The graphomate bubbles extension is suitable to map a portfolio of values for a small number of obects on two value axes. Up to 5 KPIs can be visualized for approximately two dozen bubbles. A two-dimensional utilization as scatterplot supports up to 100 bubble elements. In addition it can be used as a „bubble chart" to find patterns and correlations in up to 5 dimensions of highly aggregated data. Of course the graphomate bubbles also offer many additional features you might be familiar with from our other components. This includes a collision logic for overlapping labels, a number format configuration and optical customization.

Info

In the sense of a uniform language regulation we speak in the further manual of Lumira Designer or briefly Designer. Our products are still compatible with SAP Design Studio 1.6.

For the graphomate bubbles extension we recommend the use of Designer 2.0 >= SP00 with the Internet Explorer 11+ or any comparable modern browser. For further information – e.g. regarding the deployment on the Business Intelligence Platform (BIP) or SAP Netweaver – please consult the Product Availability Matrix (PAM).

Please be advised that we not support the Internet Explorer 9 and 10 starting 2017.
