Named Groups in Chart Binding
To define a Named Grouping for data bound to a Chart, follow the steps below:
1. In the Binding panel of the Chart Editor, press the 'Edit Dimension' button next to the field for which you want to define named grouping.

See Creating a Named Grouping in Data Mashup for instructions on how to create a reusable named group.
This opens the 'Edit Dimension' panel. If a named grouping already exists in a Data Worksheet, you can simply select it from the 'Named Group' menu. However, to define a custom named grouping, continue with the steps below.
2. In the 'Named Group' menu, select 'Customize' and press the 'Edit' button. This opens the 'Named Group Definition' dialog box.

3. In the 'Named Group Definition' dialog box, press 'New' and enter a name for the first group.
4. In the 'Condition' panel, enter a condition that assigns particular column elements to the specified named group. (See Filtering Data in Data Binding Wizard for more information about specifying conditions.)
5. Click 'Append' to add the condition. Repeat the above two steps to add additional named groups and conditions.
6. In the 'Others' panel at the bottom, indicate how the chart should display column elements that do not satisfy any of the specified grouping conditions:
a. 'Group all others together' groups these elements into a single catch-all group with the label “Others.”
b. 'Leave others in their own group' displays each of these elements as its own group.
7. Press 'OK' to close the dialog box, and press the 'Apply' button (green arrow) in the 'Edit Dimension' panel to apply the grouping.
See the Creating a Section Using the Data Binding Wizard section for an example of data binding using named grouping.
