The Summary Panel lets you display the results of formula fields that pertain to the entire chart, such as headcount for an entire branch, salaries for an entire department, and similar values. The Summary panel displays information at a global level (pertaining to the entire chart), regardless of how much of the chart is currently displayed. You can print, copy, and send the summary information to Excel.

4 You can change the order in which the fields and their summary values appear by using the Move Up an Move Down buttons.
