This article applies to versions 4.4 of P2 Explorer. For help on the latest version, see Targets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Overview<\/span><\/h2>\n

P2 Explorer pages have several statistical components for better data visualisation. Three of these that involve targets are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Target Label<\/strong>:<\/td>\nA label showing an actual value versus its percentage of a target value.<\/td>\n\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Target Bar<\/strong>:<\/td>\nA horizontal bar chart showing actual versus target.<\/td>\n\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Target Variance Bar<\/strong>:<\/td>\nA horizontal bar chart showing actual, variance percent and target.<\/td>\n\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The target label, target bar, and target variance bar show performance statistics at a glance, with further detail available when you hover over them.<\/p>\n

\n

Target Label<\/h2>\n

The target label shows an actual value, as well as this value as a percentage of the target.<\/p>\n

Watch the video below:<\/strong> Hover over the value to see what it represents, and hover over the percentage to see the target value and what it represents.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\r\n\t

Features of the target label:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
1. Actual Value<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

This is the numerical actual value.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

2. Units of measure<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Units of measure are not always shown on the target label.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

3. Percentage<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Actual value as a percentage of the target. Hover over the percentage to see the target value and what it represents (for example, 'gas target').<\/p>\n

The percentage is preceded by a plus (+<\/strong>) or a minus (-<\/strong>) sign, depending on whether the actual value is above or below the target value.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

4. Tool-tip showing actual<\/em><\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Hover over the actual value to see what it represents ('gas', in this example).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n

\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5. Percentage Background<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The background is red if the percentage of target is an undesirable outcome. In this example, gas is under target which is an undesirable outcome. For a label representing water, actual values above target would be undesirable; in that case, the label would be configured to show a red background for positive percentage figures.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

\n

Target Bar<\/h2>\n

The target bar shows you at a glance how an actual value is performing against its target.<\/p>\n

Features of the target bar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\n
1. Actual Value Bar<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The horizontal bar shows the actual value. Hover over the bar to see its value in numerical format.<\/p>\n

This bar is grey for 'desirable' outcomes, and red for 'undesirable' outcomes; in some cases, an actual exceeding a target is seen as 'desirable'; in other cases it is preferable to come below the target (for example, where the target represents a budget). The target bar is configured, accordingly.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

2. Target Line<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The vertical line shows the target value, positioned on the bar in relation to the actual value.<\/p>\n

You can see straight away that the target is about a third of the actual. Hover over the target line to see its value in numerical format.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n

\n\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3. Tool-tip showing Actual<\/em><\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Hover over the actual bar to see its numerical value. The target bar has a similar tool-tip.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Watch the video below<\/strong> to see what additional information is available when you hover over the horizontal bar (actual) or over the vertical line (target). Labels on the left are separate components.<\/p>\n

Here, water is over target; this is shown as an undesirable outcome (a red bar).<\/p>\n\r\n\t\r\n\t

In this video<\/strong>, note how the targets are the same, giving you a like-for-like comparison between the three wells (labels on the left are separate components).<\/p>\n

Here, the first two wells are under target; this is shown as an undesirable outcome (a red bar).<\/p>\n\r\n\t\r\n\t

\n

Target Variance Bar<\/h2>\n

The target variance bar is a horizontal bar chart showing actual, variance percent and target.<\/p>\n

Features of the target variance bar:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
1. Percentage Variance Bar<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

This bar is red for an 'undesirable' percentage variance, and grey for a 'desirable' percentage variance. The grey or red is a lighter shade as it tends towards a lower percentage.<\/p>\n

Hover over the percentage variance bar to see the actual numerical value, as well as the value as a percentage of the target value.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
2. Target Line<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Hover over the vertical target line, so see the target numerical value.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3. Two Target Variance Bars<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

These target bars are vertically aligned along the separate target lines. Because the bars are measured as a percentage, the two can be visually compared.<\/p>\n

Note how the grey is a lighter shade when it is closer to the target.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

\"\"<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Watch the video below:<\/strong> In this video, two separate target variance bars (each with its own label) have their separate targets vertically aligned, so that their variances can be visually compared, like-for-like. Because the target variance is expressed as a percentage, two or more target variance bars can easily be compared. Watch how the values are displayed when you hover over the horizontal bars, and the vertical targets lines.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\r\n\t

P2 Explorer pages have several statistical components for better data visualisation. Learn about the Target Label, Target Bar, and Target Variable Bar components and how to interpret the graphical clues they offer.<\/p>\n
