The Windows client and the Web client can display a set of predefined charts that use Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central data; queries can be used as data sources for those charts in both systems.
There are two types of charts:
- Standard Charts (available in Windows client only)
- Business Charts (available with JS add-ins)
Note
You can read more about business charts concepts and components at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/displaying-charts-using-the-chart-control-add-in.
We will use the query defined earlier on in this chapter as the data source of a chart, and we will display it on the home page of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central On-premise Windows client.
To define a query as the data source of a chart, perform the following steps:
- Open the Windows client for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on-premise.
