2. In BMC Remedy Developer Studio, open the appropriate form.
3. Right-click the form, and select Create a New Field > Data Visualization.
    The new data visualization field appears on the form.
4. Select the field.
5. In the Properties tab, click these properties, and select the appropriate value from the drop-down list:
   • Module Type — The module type for the data visualization, which is defined in the Module Registration form:
     • Flashboard

       Note

       If you are adding a BIRT report to your data visualization field (DVF), BMC Remedy Developer Studio cannot display the dynamic content. The field will be empty until you view the form in a browser.

     • Visualizer
   • Server — The BMC Remedy AR System server that contains the data visualization module.
