For example, create bins on Sales to group order values into ranges and identify which sales ranges contribute the most revenue.

    1. In the Data pane, from the measure field's context menu, select **Create Bin**.
    2. In the Create Numeric Bin window, enter the bin's name, and optionally, a description.
    3. Enter a value for the bin size.
    4. Preview the bin ranges and adjust the bin size if needed.
