Overview

A Progress Chart visually represents the completion rate of a given metric relative to a target. It displays a circular indicator showing the percentage of progress made, allowing users to quickly evaluate performance against a goal.

This chart is especially useful in dashboards for showcasing key performance indicators (KPIs), such as sales achievement, task completion, or budget usage.

When to Use

• To track progress toward a target (e.g., sales vs. sales target).
• To highlight KPI performance with a quick, intuitive visual.
• To display goal achievement in a compact and visually appealing way.

Data Structure

A Progress Chart requires the following fields:

• Analysis model: A data model containing the metric and target fields.
• Progress: The actual value to be evaluated (e.g., Sales).
• Target: The expected or target value (e.g., Sales target).
• Time axis (Optional): A time-based dimension (e.g., date or month), which can be used to evaluate progress over a specific time range.
