Once the Chart Type is chosen, the Chart Settings become available
Choose the Data Source. Select Manual Token List to manually input data and use tokens OR Collected Items to select an items field from a previously collected set of data.
Choose the Label. Create a comma separated list from multiple field tokens OR choose a field from the drop down menu to use for Labels.
Using Series 1, chart the first set of data. Give the Series a Name. Then, create a comma separated list using the Manual Token List data set, otherwise choose the field that holds that data to chart on the Collected Item. Even customize the Series Color and Symbol.
Choose Add Series to add multiple sets of data on the same Chart.
