WHEN TO USE A TREEMAP CHART FULL
In a treemap you need at least one dimension and one measure, but to make full use of the treemap it is preferable to have two or three dimensions. The other dimensions define the grouping of the rectangles. The last dimension you add defines the rectangles. Add more dimensions in the order of hierarchy level.The measure will define the size of a rectangle. Click Add measure and select a measure or create a measure from a field.It will be displayed as the main group in the chart. This should be the highest level in the hierarchy.
