Dynamics NAV 2009 now offers the Role Tailored Client (RTC) as the new client. This will be the only available client in the coming versions of Dynamics NAV. Since this user interface is still quite new, it is not always easy to find your way around. This blog is created to show some of the new features in Dynamics NAV 2009 that will make our life easier.
Generate Charts and KPIs for Dynamics NAV 2009 RTC
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 has a new type of controls that can be displayed in the Role Tailored Client (RTC) on the homepage of the role center. This type is called a chart and allows the graphical display of Key Performance Indicators. A simple way of creating these charts is using the Chart Generator Tool, which is described in this post as well.
The layout of a chart
For each chart you define the table that the information is based on, the information you want to show on the X-Axis including any filters you want to apply, and then you also define what data you want to show on the Y-Axis of the chart (either the sum of a field or the count of records). You can define multiple measures that should be displayed in the same chart. If you are defining a 3D chart, you also would then define the information to be displayed on the Z-Axis of the chart. This is how your charts could look like.
