Configuring Statistics cards to view different categories of tickets


The Statistics Card Bar and Statistics Card components represent different categories of tickets as separate cards and give a quick overview of tickets that are open in your application.

The Statistics Card Bar and Statistics Card components are available in the Common Components section of the View designer. These components are visible only if you deploy the Common components bundle. These components help represent different categories of tickets as separate cards and give a quick overview of tickets that are open in your application. The Statistics Card Bar is a parent component that holds multiple Statistics cards representing different categories. 

To view different categories as separate cards, you must first add the Statistics Card Bar component. You can then add multiple Statistics Cards representing different categories to the parent Statistics Card Bar component.
