I chart X axis settings

[#1]

Good evening,

I have been a JMP user for a few months mainly for SPCs. Today I have a rather aesthetic question but which has a purpose of better visualization of data. I can't find a way to make the label of my "batch" qualitative data appear at each batch change on the x-axis of an individual values type control chart (I don't have the same number of values per batch and therefore I would like to display each batch only once, from the first value of the said batch, if possible automatically because I have more than 3700 values in all). I know that this type of visualization is possible on Minitab, so I tell myself that it is as much on JMP ^^).
Thank you in advance for your precious help !

Cordially,
Arkawa

Hi all,
I will write this topic in english.
To summarize the situation, I would like, for visualization purpose, to find a way to name each X axis label by the first qualitative data (batch number) of each series of variable data, because I have different number of variable data by batch number. I know that this visualization can be performed using Minitab, so I suppose that JMP can also do it.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards

Arkawa.

Would it be possible to upload an image of what you are looking for?

You can find attached a picture of what I expect.

The batches are represented into letters A, B, C, D. The letter without brackets is the label of the batch when the first value of the batch appeared, so what I want. The letters between brackets indicate the label of the batch within the number of values for this batch, I don't want them but it is to illustrate that each batch may not have the same number of values.

Tell me if is suits to you.

Best regards

You have the option (certainly in the Legacy Control Charts platform) of designating Sample Label and Phase.

Welcome to the community.  You can select to subgroup by Sample Label and put batch in that box.  

Of course, this would not be the desired approach.  The rational subgroup should consist of the same X's changing over time.  If you change subgroup size, you potentially violate this assumption.  Remember the Range chart answers the question: Is the within subgroup variation consistency and stable?  That variation is a function the X's changing within subgroup.  The Xbar chart answers the question: Is the variation between subgroup more than that predicted by the within subgroup? Effectively to determine which source has the greatest leverage on the recorded value (Y).  If you change the variables within subgroup, the control charts can no longer answer those questions.

Hello, thanks for the reply.

To go further detail, my control chart includes 3 phases, in which I have to follow-up individual values and not the mean, each phase includes some different numbers of batches, and to finalize it, all was dispatched within a condition (Stop/Run). Thus at term, I have 2 control charts (Run/Stop) within the 3 phases, only the control chart Run includes the batches (because it is justly the Run condition). I cannot share my control chart for confidentiality.
Thank you.
Best regards

If you are using the Control Chart Builder (CCB) then you can drag multiple x-axis columns into the x-axis box.  It might be convenient to drag you batch ID column below the individual run ID on the x-axis.

e.g. drag individual ID first, then drag batch ID below (a blue box will show up) the individual ID.  

Alternatively, you can drag Batch ID into the Phase role at the top of the CCB graph. This will divide the control chart into separate divisions for each batch

Luckily the JMP Community engine does a good job of translation.

Hi all,
I well tried the X axis by using the control chart builder and finally I succeeded it (example matching date and batch numbers) thank you very much for your help (and yes I agree tha the translator is really efficient).

The JMP community is very responsive, it is very appreciated. I will return for sure.

Good evening from France
