Create a Subset Data Table from a JMP Report

Histograms and Pareto plots produce linked subsets of a data table.

Use a Histogram

Once you have produced output that contains a histogram (by selecting Analyze > Distribution), you can use the histogram to create a new data table. The new data table contains the data in the histogram’s highlighted bars.

To create a subset, double-click a highlighted bar. Or, right-click anywhere in the histogram and select Subset from the menu. The subset table appears.

Note: The subset data table contains a view of the data, not the actual data. You must explicitly save the table if you want a copy. Note that the saved copy of the data table is no longer linked to the source table.

Using a Pareto Plot

Once you have produced output that contains a Pareto plot (by selecting Analyze > Quality and Process > Pareto Plot), you can use the Pareto plot to create a new data table. The new data table contains the data in the Pareto plot’s highlighted bars. To create a subset, right-click a highlighted bar and select Subset from the menu.
