    Analytics Evidence S8 - Some Canned Reports have Poor Visual Representation

    Created By: Igelu-Eluna Analytics
    Created on: 1/14/2019



    Example 1:

    Facet Usage by Month report has 2 tables, only one of which identifies the time period included.  

    The person looking at the table has to figure out the time period represented by the other table.

    It is doable, but it this poor design.  

    Example 2:

    The report for Device Usage has 6 pie charts in a single display, 4 of which have 7 categories.  

    It is visual cacophony.

    status: open


    Discussed with Brent Cook at ELUNA, May 2, 2019

    Ex Libris is in the process of fixing the canned reports.
