Custom Business Chart Add-In Example for NAV 2013 R2

On his Microsoft Dynamics NAV Blog, Olof Simren provides an example of how to create a custom chart in Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 using the business chart control add-in provided by the Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Client.BusinessChart.dll assembly. He says it sounds complicated, but it is actually quite easy. His example shows you how to create a work center load chart that shows the available vs. allocated capacity on a day-by-day basis.

"If you have read some of my previous blog posts (the Custom Progress Bar or Interaction Between Role Center Parts) you know that I am working on a shop floor terminal role center (more for my own training) that this custom chart will be part of. The idea is to provide a graphical representation like the below for the machine operator to see how much work that has been allocated to the work center(s) that he/she is running."
