Component Library
Report Forge components are the elements placed on report pages. Choose components based on the evidence the report needs to explain.
Categories
| Category | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Layout and text | Structure, page flow, headings, notes, and navigation. |
| Tables and data | Detailed records, structured rows, matrices, and RAG summaries. |
| Charts and trends | Trends, category comparisons, distributions, and movement. |
| Indicators and KPIs | Fast executive status, targets, thresholds, and small indicators. |
| Schedule and project controls | Gantt, cash flow, earned value, resources, milestones, risk, and network views. |
| Media and interactivity | Images, galleries, slicers, filter panes, buttons, maps, and subreports. |
Component selection rule
Use the simplest component that answers the stakeholder question. If the reader needs exact records, start with a table. If the reader needs trend, use a chart. If the reader needs a decision signal, use a KPI or indicator.
