Chapter 70. Companies Over Time Graph

Overview

Graphing reports show real-time content of the membership database. The companies over time report shows the number of active companies with the organization for a given date range. The report can be generated for the entire history of the organization or for a specific date range. The graphs can then be modified and printed. The data used to generate the graph is displayed at the bottom of the page and can be downloaded to the report administrator's computer to work with off-line.

The companies over time graph shows an increase in membership based on a member's initial signup date. A decrease in membership is shown on a member's deactivation date. Kavi Members does not track a running total of members at this time, so any changes to members' deactivation or initial signup dates will change the display of this graph.
