# What is an "Analytic"?

In **BuildingPro Suites**, the term "*Analytic*" is used to refer to a filtered graphical view of your site's data.

The "*Analytic*" refers to data from a one or more *Assets* (meters or Datapoints) over a period of time.

The data is displayed as a [*->Chart*](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/platform/insight-analytics/the-insight-analytics-interface/chart) **\[A]** and/or [*->Summary Table*](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/platform/insight-analytics/the-insight-analytics-interface/summary-table) **\[B]**.

Navigation controls (pickers) **\[C]** may be displayed or hidden. These allow the user to adjust the *Analytic* in real-time.

*Analytic*s may be created using the [->Insight Analytics interface](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/platform/insight-analytics). A configured *Analytic* may be saved and later recalled.
