Query design for a pareto chart

Question

Hi all,
is it possible to show a pareto chart on Web Template? I need to show the causes of non-conformities that holds 80 % of the whole number of non-conformities. Can you give an idea on how I can design a query for this? For example, I have data for
Cause        # of non-conformities
1                         1
2                        50
3                        90
4                          5
5                         4
6                       100
total # of non-conformities:250
80% is 200, and on the chart only number 3 and  number 6 causes should be shown with a total 190. I tried to add a formula that finds the percentages and checked the cumulative mark on the properties. Then I added a condition that limits the new formula field (get the ones with less than 0.8). I run the query in analyzer, sorted and activated the condition but it did not work. The condition did not work on cumulative check, it takes the percentage.
Does anybody have any idea about how can I show a chart like this?

Yasemin,
I have had to do some Pareto reporting for percentage of forecasted items that fell in various groupings:
0 to 25% forecast accuracy
26 to 50% forecast accuracy etc
the way I implemented the requirement was:
1. create a query to report data - in my case I had to report forecast accuracy percentage by plant, customer and material.
2. create an APD to run the query created in step 1 and write the results to a transactional ODS - contents of which will then be written to a cube
3. create a query off the cube that will count the forecast accuracy range for each grouping and then determine the overall percentage
Maybe this might help you!
