Pie Chart / Query : Top 3 and Remainder

Hi
I am trying to develop a template, which shows various exception information to the end user. There are approximately 20 exception scenarios which are analysed each night and data stored in the cube. This information is then related back to the end user via a simple web template.
I can show that data in a table nicely.
I have created an additional query with a "Top 3" condition applied, which results in the 3 exceptions that contribute the mos to the total being displayed. This query can then be used as the source for a pie chart, so the user can see graphically which are the most important exceptions to address.
I have now been asked to include a "remainder" item in that pie chart, or not have the pie chart add up to 100%. What the user wants to see, is what the top 3 exceptions were, and what all the other exceptions added up to, essentially the difference between 100% and the sum of the contribution (%) of the top 3.
I can write a query which displays the top 3, and include in that a result row which shows the sum of the percentages. So, for example, it will display the 3 and the total will be 87%, meaning the remaining errors contributed 13%, but how would I get this as an additional row in the query?
Alternately, is it possible to have a pie chart that doesn't add up to 100%. A pie chart that is incomplete in essence?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,
To show the value as a percentage and not have the total be 100%, you need to calculate the value in the query. Create a key figure to calculate the percentage and use a condition to only show the top 3. Conditions wont effect the totals or percentages so the total percentage won't add up to 100.
I don't think it's possible to show a 'other' value with the remainder.
Kind regards,
Alex

Pie Chart Legend - colors and sorting value

Hi,I have a pie chart with around 20 'segments' representing names of people - so it looks like several of them have the same color.So my first question is do the standard 12 colors repeat after 12 segments have been 'defined' - can this be extended with custom colors?. I know you can set colors for specific values but as the list is dynamic, I can't do that. I also have a legend defined which shows the person's name and then the value - either a percentage or a count etc. From top to bottom, the legend lists the entries alphabetically by the person's name - however, it's not always easy to tell which name is associated with which 'segment' and using labels is not an option as they are too long and there are too many of them to be readable So what I would like to do is have the legend displayed in numerical size order - e.g. person with largest % is at the top, smallest % is at the bottom etc.I've been looking at the Chart Expert, CR Help and the forums but have not seen an answer to either question - I'm hoping someone can tell me if it's possible or not (and if so, how do I do it!).Thanks 

Hi,
If you go to the Chart Expert, on the data tab, you can choose the Top N option.Â From within there you can get your legend sorted based on the highest or lowest percentage.Â You can also group information so that you only see the top 5 or lowest 10 or whatever you want.
Also when I create a pie graph based on 20 plus pieces of data it isn't resusing the colors, but they are somewhat similar. I usually do a group of the top 10 or so, then have an others category for situations like this.Â

Pie chart query

I have a table with a column that will always be Y or N. I am wanting to use a pie chart to show how many of each there are. I tried doing a union all and it works if the Y and the N both have values but if one is 100% the chart goes postal...
Here is an example I fixed up with the emp table showing what I mean...

Any ideas?
The value being returned is a zero so it isn't null I'm stumped...

How to show top 20 values in a Pie Chart

Hi
We have a requirement to develop a Pie chart for top 20 Order value locations.but i am not able to plug in top 20 logic in a pie chart.This functionality (TOP N) is avilable in bar chart , but it is not avilable in Pie chart. Could some help me to implement this logic in a Pie chart.
Your help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Laj

Not sure what you are saying here. Obviously you have to have a place to place the distinct values, whether in another column or in the same column. That's not really a drawback, just a fact of life.
I'm curious about what you mean by "multiple columns to dynamically select some records with specific criteria from different columns." If you can give a specific example of what you are trying to do, I there may be a solution. Are you trying to do something like Excel's filtering on multiple columns?
If you are you can click the disclosure triangle by the column letter to get a dropdown like this:
Similar to Excel.

SSRS Report Builder 3.0 - Pie Chart

Hi,
I have Pie chart that displays Number of items by Country,
My data set is pulling the correct values.
The 3D effect is true for the pie chart and the Series Labels are set to diplay out of the Slice.
I used the collected style to be SingleSlice and not using percentages but just the values less than or = 5 to be collected to other countries slice.
for labels format I am using a column value from the query where I Concatenate the Value and Name of the country as string as I am not showing the legend on the chart for more space
All the values are showing up right except for one value for one slice which is added extra numbers at the beginning of the number part of the string.
For Example , if for USA there are 320 items it should should show up as USA - 320 as that is the value that the query bring and I double checked that. But that value dipslays USA - 12320 for some reason and this is happening only with one
label.
I might be missing somethign silly but if someone can save my time and help me it would be appreciated.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Chaitanya

Hi Chaitanya,
Sorry for the delay.
I am unable to reproduce the issue in my test environment. The issue seems rather odd. Here, I suggest that you create a new report and design the Pie Chart from scratch, and then check the issue again.
If the issue persists, please post the expression of the label data as well as the CustomAttributes settings of the target series of the Pie Chart.

Pie chart legend summary bug, weird text being printed

Hi guys, I created a simple report with a Pie Chart on VS2008 and on my computer the chart legend displays all items perfectly but when I deploy it on our web server the legend summary, which is always 100% doesn't say "Total" anymore but a weird text, have you seen this before? Here's a sample.
On my machine the chart legend is the following:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
Total                                  100.0% 180
On the server:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
eTotal:1_n_pseudoloc_   100.0% 180

Have not seen this before, but do apply SP1 on your dev computer:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009351512008E/crbasic2008sp1.exe
Recompile.
And use SP1 runtime:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100010010692008E/crredist2005_sp1_x86.zip

Pie chart in Visual composer

hi experts,
Can anyone tell abt the creatiob pie chart in visual composer??? for multiple values..
regards
roshini

Before you rush now and create a pie chart, sit back and read the following document of how to visualize data:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SIT/Visualization
You will see that pie charts are the by far worst method to display data. Edward Tufte (the guru in data visualization and a must read for everybody who wants to be serious with datawarehousing and dashboards) writes "A table is nearly always better than a dumb pie chart; the only worse design than a pie chart is several of them [...]" (p. 178, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information)
If you want to become the "laughing stock" of your folks and customers, and just show off marketing wise, then use as many pie charts as you can find. Your users however won't be able to make sense out of the data.
Sorry, I am very passionate about this topic

How to Avoid overlapping data label values in Pie Chart

Hi,
I am facing the problem when the data is more my pie chart data label value is overlapping.
I tried with showing outside the data label value but customer is not accepting ,and i used the CollectedPie option also but still its overlapping .So please any body knows how to resolve this problem as i need very urgent basis.
Regards,
HariKan
HariKan

Hi HariKan,
Per my understanding that the Category group of the pie chart which will retuen many values so that the label will overlapping and you want to know is any method to deal with this kind of problem, right?
In Reporting Services, when enabling data label in par charts, the position for data label only have two options: inside and outside.
In your scenario, I recommend you to increase the size of the pie chart if you insist to choose the lable inside the pie chart as below:
If you choose to "Enable 3D" in the chart area properties and choose to display the label outside, the label's layout will be more clear:

Retriving value from Pie chart to hidden field using onmouseover event

Hi,
I am Vaibhav. I have create Pie chart on EMP table. Pie chart query is as follows,
SELECT 'javascript:onmouseover=$x(''P25_DEPTNO'').value='||deptno||';popupURL(''http://www.google.com'');' LINK,
deptno, COUNT (empno)
FROM emp
GROUP BY deptno
On mouseover on Pie chart i want to get value of deptno column but from above query i am not getting the value of deptno. So how should I get value of deptno on mouseover event on Pie chart.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Vaibhav
Edited by: user10600404 on Feb 28, 2011 10:39 PM

Hi,
I can get it to work with:
SELECT 'javascript:onclick=$x("P24_DEPTNO").value='||deptno||';popupURL("http://www.google.com");' LINK,
deptno, COUNT (empno)
FROM emp
GROUP BY deptno That is - using onclick instead of onmouseover.
See: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=9568:24 - the Select list is updated as you click on a slice in the pie chart

Formating Pie Chart

Hi all,
I am very new to XcelsiusPlease tell me how to work on Charts (Pie Chart) . I am using one Pie Chart to which I mention the data lables range, But it is showing the specifed range of lables as well as defalt lables I tried to deleat default lables but there is no option to deleat it. Please help me.
Thank You

Shonti,
The samples Pie chart is an example of a chart with Drill down feature enabled,which can be done with the second tab(drill down) on the pie chart property sheet.
In the sample pie chart the labels and values are bound under general tab,drill down feature is enabled under the drill down tab,insertion type,source data and the destination range is specified.Now the values that were bound in general tab are deleted so that the chart can feed from the values specified in the destination range.This is the reason why the value range is empty in the general tab.This destination range is highlighted in the embedded property sheet.The coIumn chart below it also displays data or values entering the destination range which is specified as it's y axis values.
In preview mode when you click on each pie slice notice the column chart below shows the data corresponding to the label(which is branch name) and it's monthly sales ,these are the values that enter into the destination range specified in the drill down property tab of the pie chart and also into the value y axis of the column chart.
Pease also refer to Xcelsius user guide located under Help > Xcelsius help or simply press F1 to pull it out.
Hope this helps.
