Data Bindings - Card
To get data into your dasharea, you need to select a Bizview dataview. Before you can select a dataview, you need to design one. To design a data view, select the System icon from the menu and then scroll to the bottom and select Data Views:
For more information, see Data View.
Once you've create a Bizview dataview, you can select the desired dataview from the drop-down in Data Bindings in the right panel:
Only dataviews with defined dataview fields will be visible in this list.
If you have an existing dataview from an earlier version of Bizview, you need to go to Data view Fields and save the dataview in order to make it visible in the Dashboard module.
All available dataview fields display in a list to the left of the right panel. Drag and drop the desired dataview fields to a container to the right.
You can scroll in the list if there are many dataview fields, and there is also a filter function where you can search by entering the name of the desired field.
Below is a list of Data Binding containers for Cards:
Container | Description |
|---|---|
Value | The Value container should contain a measure field from the dataview. Measure columns are marked with a Σ sign. |
Ranges | The Ranges container should contain the ranges (created in the dataview). A range represents some interval on a Scale. It is not possible to define fixed ranges, the range interval values need to be provided by the dataview. The dataview should provide: Scale Start value, Interval 1 Start value, Interval 2 Start value (and so on...), and Scale End value. |
Once you drag and drop the desired fields, the dasharea updates with the data you selected:
You can trace the bound data to view the actual data returned to the dasharea. For more information, see Trace.
Edit the field options by selecting the field in the containers in the right panel. The Dataview Fields window is replaced with an Options dialog, as shown below:
Below is a list of the Data Bindings field settings:
Setting | Description |
|---|---|
Aggregation Type | Select desired aggregation type (Sum, Average, Count, Max, Min). By default, the aggregation type is SUM for measures and is shown in the value container next to the column name (within brackets). |
Color | Select desired text color. |
Background Color | Select desired background color. |
Next to the Dataview drop-down there are two buttons:
Update the selected dataview.
Trace can be used as a tool for the Dashboard Designer and/or for troubleshooting purposes. For more information, see Trace.
