sy-variwide-chart
Variwide
Show two measures through bar height and width.
sy-variwide-chart
Use to express the relationship between two magnitudes, such as unit price and quantity.
Label both units so readers do not confuse height with area when widths vary.
Base chart tier: Community. Features such as additional renderers and custom branding have separate entitlement requirements.
