Join the thousands separating the "vital few" from the "trivial many" using SPC for Excel
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 three 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)
