Historical chart

Overview

The Historical chart Widget for Bizagi is available for download at Bizagi Widget Xchange.

Through this Widget, you will be able to display charts anywhere in your process forms that present given values over time (i.e a timeline).

The Historical chart resembles the line chart, however it also provides a summary view of the behavior over time at the bottom part of the chart, and it will consider date attributes in your data model instead of string attributes.

 

Before you start

In order to test and use this Widget, you will need:

1.Bizagi Studio previously installed.

2.This specific Widget previously installed, either as described at https://help.bizagi.com/platform/en/index.html?widget_xchange.htm, or as described at https://help.bizagi.com/platform/en/index.html?widgets_manualinst.htm.

 

Data model considerations

In order to use this Widget, you need in your data model a Collection type attribute which holds the multiple paired values to display.

Paired values are graphed in a chart (x, y coordinates and axis).

Such collection should include these attributes:

One currency type attribute, having the value of each recorded information.

One date type attribute, ideally where there is a unique record for a given date, so that each record belongs to that given point in time.

 

The above means that ideally, logical records should not be repeated within the collection.

The sample image below shows the use of a Invoice products collection, while relying on the Recorded date and Currency value attributes.
