Dimension Based Dynamic Determination of Visual Analytics

摘要

Systems and methods for determining alternative visual analytics for a particular business object in response to user requests to change the dimensions of a previously generated visual analytic are disclosed herein. By analyzing the request to change the dimensions, an alternative visual analytic pattern that includes suitably dimensioned visualizations is determined. The alternative visual analytic pattern includes a description of a particular visualization and defines how to generate a corresponding visual analytic. Based on the alternative visual analytic pattern, a modified report definition can be generated. The Modified report definition, that includes analytical operations with dimensions corresponding to the request, can be executed on the business object to generate modified analytic data. A new modified visual analytic that comprises a visual representation of the modified analytic data is then generated based on the alternative visual analytic pattern.
