In-Depth Information
You can choose data grouping, such as whether you want to see the chart on a
daily, weekly, or monthly basis. As you can see in Figure 6.6, this provides some power
to visualize a trend more accurately.

Report chart
Depending on the type of report, the report data contains the reporting entries
and the metrics pertaining to them in a tabular form. this is true for most reports;
even when you don't have the table, as in a path analysis report, you are still looking at
the report data modifiers. the report data modifiers, as shown in Figure 6.7, include:
F

•
ilters
•
s
orting
e
•
vents
A
•
lerts
•
c

•
D

these modifiers are accessible by clicking the three icons you see at the top
right; by clicking the sorting arrow on top of the metric columns; by clicking the mag-
nifying glass on the left column; or by right-clicking any of the metrics or dimensions.
the report data modifiers are tremendously valuable, and this is where you can drill
into and work with your data.
