Overview<\/h2>\n

The Target Variance Bar calculates the percentage above or below a target, and displays the result as a bar graph with a target line in the middle.<\/p>\n

By default, the bar is green\u00a0when the value\u00a0is below the target (left of the line), or red\u00a0when the value\u00a0is at or above the target (right of the line).<\/p>\n

The following diagram shows a Target Variance Bar being configured:<\/p>\n

\"Target<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Actual:<\/strong><\/td>\nThe actual value that is being compared with the target value.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Target<\/strong>:<\/td>\nThe value used for the target.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Max Variance:<\/strong><\/td>\nThe highest percentage of the actual\u00a0value over target. This determines the proportion of the bar that is filled. It is commonly used to align multiple Target Variance Bars to the same scale so that comparisons can be more easily made. E.g. If you had 2 Target Variance Bars in a table, you would set the same max variance for all of them so you can see which has the greater variation.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Decimals<\/strong>:<\/td>\nThe number of decimal points for the actual value displayed in the tooltip.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Style<\/strong>:<\/td>\nThe style you want to apply to the Target Variance Bar\u00a0component.\u00a0If you are a Style Administrator,\u00a0you can\u00a0add a new Target Variance Bar style.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

If you're unfamiliar with the process of building pages, read the article\u00a0Building an Explorer Page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Target Variance Bar\u00a0is a useful component to display percentage\u00a0variations\u00a0of production from target. In this article, we\u2019ll show you how to use the Target Variance Bar\u00a0to display the variation from planned oil and gas production for a specific\u00a0well. This is often used in production summary reports.<\/p>\n
