Hi Chandra,

A formatter is a form element used to display information that is not a field in the record.

Add formatters to a form by configuring the form.

1. ResolutionShaper :

Resolution shaper can be applied to other tables.

You can view a list of Resolution Shaper configurations by accessing this page -   sys_resolutionshaper_config_list.do.

To add Resolution Shaper/Timeline view to an incident -

1. Add a UI formatter field called Resolution Shaper on the incident form.

2. Add a configuration in the sys_resolutionshaper_config for incident table.

2. Roadmap Bar Chart :

Use bar charts to compare two or more values. You can create bar and horizontal bar chart reports.

Bar chart columns originate on the x axis and horizontal bar chart columns originate on the y axis.

Bar charts display data in either a horizontal or vertical bar format with each bar representing a specific category of data.

Depending on the glide.ui.chart. use_full_color_palette property setting,

a bar chart may use a single color to represent all categories of data or a different color for each category.

Bar charts can be placed on homepages where users can quickly interpret the information displayed.

Table Rotation can be used for tables that:

• Hold data that is only valuable for a limited period of time
• Are written sequentially by inserting new rows

Table Extension can be used for tables:

• That hold data that's organized by time
• Where data is written and then never updated, or where updates are mostly focused on recent data
• Where data is needed for a period of time (e.g., two years) and can subsequently be discarded or archived off the system.
