Splitting and grouping: cards

In this section, we'll discover the various options in Inforiver to split and group measures in Card mode.

1. Splitting measures

When you have multiple measures and categories in your chart, you can display each measure in a separate panel. Click on the Split button in the toolbar.

In this example, we have added Subcategory as the small multiples parameter. When the split option is enabled, a separate panel is created for each category and each measure.

2. Measures category

When the split option is enabled a measures category is created: the measures can be rendered as rows/columns/legends.

The image below shows the measures rendered as columns.

You can also render measures as stacked charts by assigning the measures group to the legends bucket.

3. Grouping measures

You can combine related measures into a single KPI card. Let's look at the steps involved in creating custom measure groups.

Step 1: Click the Group Measure option, to create measure groups.

Step 2: Click the Add new group button.

Step 3: Select related measures to create a group. You can provide a relevant name for the group in the Title textbox. When you click Apply, the selected measures are combined into a single panel.

Step 4: Notice that a line chart is rendered for the group. You can customize the chart type for each panel after creating groups. In the example, we've created 2 measure groups for Actuals and Plan and changed the chart type to Column + column.
