Streamline your reporting workflow by preserving custom chart layouts and configurations for recurring needs like KYC requests, tax filings, or investor presentations. This feature eliminates the need to recreate charts from scratch by allowing users to save formatting, filters, and stylistic edits as distinct versions.

Overview

Saved Chart Views allow users to capture specific states of an organizational chart. This includes node positioning, colour coding, hidden entities, and text edits (such as obfuscated information).

Note: Text edits made within a saved chart view are visual only and do not alter the live data stored within the Entity record.

Availability: Customers on the Enterprise plan.
