Using a scatter plot chart

A scatter plot chart can display values that consist of two variables. The chart shows a set of points, each of which refer to a combination of a value on the x-axis and a value on the y-axis.

Note

In previous versions of SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards (before 4.1) the scatter plot chart component was called XY-chart component.

Getting ready

Open a new file in SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards and enter the data, as shown in the following screenshot, into the spreadsheet:

Getting ready

How to do it...

  1. Drag a Scatter Plot chart component into the canvas.
  2. Bind the data By Range to spreadsheet cells B5 until C9.
  3. Bind the Chart field to cell A1 and delete the subtitle.
  4. Bind the Value (X) Axis field to cell B4 and the Value (Y) Axis field to cell C4. Now it is clear what the implication of each axis is.
  5. Go to the Behavior tab and select the Scale sub-tab. Now select Fixed Label Size.
  6. Click on the Preview button to try the dashboard.

How it works...

In this example, we created a dashboard that compares the price of a house (variable 1) with the number of weeks until it is sold (variable 2). It shows us that cheap houses are sold very quickly; houses priced between cheap and expensive (mid-range) take a very long time to sell; while expensive houses are somewhat in between.

By using the Fixed Label Size option, the values of the x-axis are shortened for better readability. As we saw in the recipe, thousands (100,000) become K (100K). In addition, millions turn into M, billions into B, and trillions into T.
