The Proposition Distribution chart shows the portfolio coverage - that is, the number of actions which were initiated for your customers over a specific time period.

In the Pega Marketing portal, click Reports > Report Browser, as in the following figure:

The report shows the number of initiated actions as a bar chart. The same information is also available below in the form of a table. By default, the report is filtered to only include results from the past 30 days, as in the following figure:

Configure the report filters to exclude irrelevant results.
For example, if your Next-Best-Action business structure includes an issue which represents service messages and regulatory communications, actions related to this issue should be excluded from the results of this report, as they do not represent your marketing portfolio items.
In the Data Explorer section of the report, find the item which corresponds to the type of data that you want to filter out.
For example, to find the Issue item, click More > Action Dimensions > Issue.
Drag and drop the item into the Filtered by section of the report.
Edit the filter settings, as in the following figure:
Filtering out actions related to the Service issue
Click Apply changes.

Click Actions > Save as and enter a new name for the report, for example, Portfolio coverage by action and issue.
Click Done editing.
The new report is now available in the Report Browser.
