Element Distribution Summary


The Element Distribution Summary report displays either the actual (with respect to custom ranges) or percentage (with respect to specified event thresholds) distribution of instance-attribute values in the form of stacked bar graphs.

Default ranges for percentage distribution in the stacked bar can be specified in the configuration file. Custom ranges can be defined in the Create (Step 2 of 3) - Enter Element Distribution Details screen.

Drilling down on any bar in the stacked bar graph displays a table based on the distribution ranges. This table is a list of all the elements for that distribution range sorted on their average values. Drilling down further on each of the elements in the table leads to the individual graph for that element for the specified time period.

The following table lists the attributes of the Element Distribution Summary default report.
