Create funnel charts

Introduction

A funnel chart represents a sequence of steps a user takes to convert to a qualified goal. In Insights+, the funnel chart translates a sequence of steps customers go through to complete an objective(purchase).

A funnel chart helps visualize a linear process that has sequential connected stages. For example, for an email campaign funnel, a customer goes through these stages: link clicked > product page viewed > product clicked > product viewed > added to cart > cart viewed > purchase completed > points issued. The following image shows the different goals of email campaign tracking.
