Is the output locked, or can I change it?

It stays fully editable: every part is a normal Excel element you can move, color and resize.

Yes. It works off your data, so when the source cells change, so does the visual.

Will my table change?

No. Your data stays exactly as it is; only the visual is added to the sheet.

Can I move to a different template?

Yes; open the gallery again and build a new template on the same data. The old visual stays until you remove it.

Create a Pareto Chart in Excel

In short: Bars plus a cumulative line. Select your data, pick the template and map the fields; the result is an editable, data-bound visual that refreshes as your cells change. Nothing in the source is modified.

What it shows

Sorts bars in descending order and adds a cumulative percentage line, showing that a few causes make up the majority (80/20).

When to use it

It earns its place whenever you have to finding which defect or complaint causes make up most of the total.

Example scenarios

Finding which defect or complaint causes make up most of the total.
Analysts: sorts bars in descending order and adds a cumulative percentage line, showing that a few causes make up the majority (80/20).

What it needs

One column with the category labels and one with the numeric values to compare.

How to use it

Select the data range or table you want to visualize.
Open the Charts (Visualizations menu) gallery from the XLMind Plus tab.

The visual is inserted bound to your data; it refreshes as the cells change.

What it produces

A live SVG chart shape (auto-refresh and edit).

Effect on your data and undo

Pareto does not change your source data; the result is added as a separate item. It refreshes automatically when the linked cells change. If it is not what you wanted, Undo Last restores the previous state.

How it differs from similar tools

It creates this chart type without helper columns, tricks or macros; the result stays bound to your data and remains hand-editable.

Good to know

Bindings must match the chart's expected shape; auto-refreshes on source change. Requires the listed data fields (category, value).

Limitations

Requires the listed data fields.
