# Plan / Fact charts

**Plan / Fact** charts are used to analyze completed routes. You can use them to visually represent summary route or order information and [compare periods](#compare-periods). For example, you can easily see how many orders were planned, completed, and completed with violations.

## Create a chart {#build-chart}

To create a chart, set filters at the top of the page:

1. Select a cross section:
    
    - **Number of routes**
    - **Number of orders**
    
1. In the depot list, deselect the depots that you don't need to compare. If you have a large number of depots, use the search function.
1. Select the sorting method:
    
    - **Alphabetically**
    - **By volume: fact**
    - **By volume: plan**
    - **By volume: declined**
    
1. Select ascending or descending order.
1. Set the period to create charts for.
    
    {% include [report-period](../_includes/period-4ce1bc381fc4.md) %}
    
    {% note info %}
    
    The current day can't be included in the chart, even if the routes that you're interested in have already been completed.
    
    {% endnote %}
    

### Comparing periods {#compare-periods}

By comparing periods, you can find how many more or fewer deviations from the planned routes there are now:

1. Enable **Comparison of periods**.
1. Select the periods to compare. You can change them without making a new request.
    
{% note info %}

For the comparison to be objective, the periods must be the same duration.

{% endnote %}

## Reading the chart {#info-chart}

The chart shows information for all the selected depots, even if factual or planned data is missing for some of them. The average value is also calculated based on data for all depots.

When you hover over the chart, a pop-up window and a button to [generate a report](#report-chart) appear.

The information in the pop-up window depends on the mode:

{% list tabs %}

- Standard mode

    The window displays summary information for the selected depot.

    If you selected the **Number of routes** cross section:

    - The planned number of routes.
    - The number of started routes.
    - The number of routes that deviated from the planned path.

    If you selected the **Number of orders** cross section:

    - The planned number of orders.
    - The number of delivered orders.
    - The number of orders with time window violations.

- Comparison mode

    In comparison mode, you can see the differences between periods as well as the information from standard mode.

{% endlist %}

## Generating a report {#report-chart}

When you hover over the depot chart, the ![](../_images/excel-button.png) button appears. Press it to generate an Excel report for a specific depot for the selected period.
