The first step is to pick the database you wish to work with. Once you have done that, pick the data models which have the data fields relevant to your chart. Decide on how many records you want to pull up from the database and whether you wish the columns to be sorted into an alphabetic order for viewing on the next page. Pick ‘Table’ from Widget Type.

 

When you have picked the data model, you are ready to decide on which columns of data you wish to use by going to the ‘Select Columns’ tab. You can navigate to the next tab by using the “Next” button on the bottom right corner or by selecting it from the workflow sequence on the top.
