Pareto Diagrams and SPC for Excel
Our SPC software, SPC for Excel, easily creates Pareto diagrams – a great visual way to separate the vital few from the trivial many. There are four Pareto options:
- Frequency - totals the frequency of occurrence by category (e.g., number of returns by product)
- Defect - totals reasons for defects (e.g., reasons for customer returns)
- Variables - totals frequency for categories for different levels of a variable (e.g, defects by shift)
- Two-Level - creates a two-level Pareto diagram (variable -defect)
