How to display Statistics

Authorized users (Managers) can be provided with graphs (bar and pie) presenting any sort of statistical data (the progress of a project, the condition of objects, etc.). A graph can be pointed at any column in any module, but some columns will be more useful to represent in a graph than others. This example graphically displays the condition of objects in the Catalogue:

When a Programme Lead accesses a project, any Forms, Editors and Statistics tools already created will be listed, along with options to edit, delete and add new instances of them, e.g.:

To build a new Statistical graph, click in the Statistics section. The Statistical graph creator displays. Here you configure a Statistical graph and assign permissions to users.

To edit an existing Statistical graph, click Edit beside a Statistical graph's title. The Statistical graph will open ready for editing.

The graph above is configured as:

1. Complete or modify the top section of the Statistical graph

Title	A descriptive name for the graph, which will be listed in the Statistics section for authorized users.
Description	A description of the purpose of the graph. When users access the graph, an Information icon will display alongside the title. Clicking the icon will display a pop-up with details about the graph.
Identifier	A descriptive identifier for the Statistical graph (or leave blank and an alphanumeric identifier will be assigned automatically).
Table	The module that holds the data that will be graphed.

2. Permissions section: specify permissions for Everyone, or for one or more users / groups

Three permissions for project elements (Forms, Editors, Statistics) can be assigned :

none

This is the default state for Everyone when a project element is created: the element is not available to users and will not be listed when they log in.

use

When assigned, the project element will be listed when an authorized user logs in. The user can use the project element but not modify it.

edit

When assigned, the project element will be listed when an authorized user logs in. The user can use the project element, modify and delete it.

When the project element is listed in the Dashboard, the edit Edit and delete icons will display beside its name.

To change access permissions that affect all users of a project element, select the appropriate permission from the Everyone drop list:
