Understanding the Produced Quantity Dashboard Chart

Editing the Chart
To edit this chart, you’ll need administrator permissions. If you have these permissions, you can change the chart type, time interval, and timespan. The chart type can be changed to suit your preference - Line, Bar, Percentage, etc. The time interval can be adjusted to daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly, and the timespan can be set to a specific period, such as ‘Last Year’, ‘Last Quarter’, etc.
