The scope define how much Forms are used to generate the chart. Possible values:\
   \- Global {all forms are included}\
   \- Application {all forms of the selected application} (the user has to select a Form and from that selection the application is taken)\
   \- Form Definition (all versions) {all versions of selected form definition}\
   \- Form Definition (selected) {only the actual version of selected form definition}\
   \- Fields Values {only the actual version of selected form definition} (there is an exception with Field Evolution Comparison where a field of different forms can be selected)\
**4- Chart Type**\

   \- Bar Quantity {count forms quantity}\
   \- Donut Quantity {count forms quantity}\
   \- Day Distribution Creation {count forms quantity in each day}\

This is a powerful dynamic filter (if we want to filter for some values). See examples:\
\[:form | form country = 'USA'] \
\[:form | form country = 'USA' and: \[form city = 'Los Angeles']]\
\[:form | (form country = 'USA' and: \[form city = 'Los Angeles']) or: \[form amount > 50000]]\
\[:form | form hasPassed]\
\[:form | form issueDate > (Date fromString: '01/01/2020')]
