https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Reporting-Creating-customized-Pie-using-Wizard-in-EG-4-1/m-p/4320#M1365 I'm not sure what you are trying to do, so I suspect E.G. will have as much trouble. You have data which is granular at a given level, but you want to display it at a less granular level. So it seems the first thing you need to do is tell SAS how it is to assess the source data you have. Use a Data Summary task to create a new table with three hour granularity and populate it with your 15 minute data. To do that you'll need to decide whether your 3 hour slots will show SUM, MEAN, MAX, MEDIAN or some other value, and you will then have a table you can graph.<BR /> <BR /> Use the Pie Chart task to take your data and plot it. I'm not clear on why you'd use a pie chart for this purpose, it seems to me that it will be difficult to read and interpret. A pie chart with slices sounds to me like a display of a clock face, but when the slice size will change with the data value it will be a very strange sort of clock. In your situation, I would use a bar chart which would be easily interpreted by any reader to distinguish differences between each 3 hour slot.<BR /> <BR /> Kind regards<BR /> <BR /> David Mon, 03 Sep 2007 08:30:23 GMT deleted_user 2007-09-03T08:30:23Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Reporting-Creating-customized-Pie-using-Wizard-in-EG-4-1/m-p/4319#M1364 Hi,<BR /> I have a dataset which has a time-series ( a day broken at 15 minute interval=96 slots) and a corresponding variable having values per 15 mins.<BR /> <BR /> I have to show a single SLICE for each 3 hour interval of a day say value of variable at 3:00 forming one slice then 6:00 forming the second and so on.... <BR /> <BR /> Also the Legend should have colour-coding for values in these 8 different slices(24 hrs divided in eight 3 hour slots)<BR /> <BR /> How do i do it in EG 4.1 using the wizard or can u provide me wid an alternative??<BR /> <BR /> Thanks,<BR /> Nachiket Mon, 27 Aug 2007 08:25:54 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Reporting-Creating-customized-Pie-using-Wizard-in-EG-4-1/m-p/4319#M1364 deleted_user 2007-08-27T08:25:54Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/Reporting-Creating-customized-Pie-using-Wizard-in-EG-4-1/m-p/4320#M1365 I'm not sure what you are trying to do, so I suspect E.G. will have as much trouble.
