- Hub View - Columns are populated by hubs with dates and items available as filters; this view is useful for This view is useful for plotting one hub against another when a single item is selected.
- Item View - Items are columns with dates, hubs, and cases available as filters and records flowing down. The Item View is useful for charting two or more items against each other. For example, plotting hydro against demand, or demand against heat rates. This also allows you to view items as a time series while viewing a table.
- Period View - Periods are columns while hubs and items flow down. This view is useful when used to determine changes across time. Note that this view does not plot well.
- Case - Hour Types across (HL, LL or Flat) and dates, hubs, and items down. Useful for comparing the hour types and makes a nice On:Off chart.
