The secondary value axis is the (optional second) y-axis of your graph, which will be displayed on the right side of your chart.
A secondary value axis can be useful, if you wish to compare two dimensions in one chart.

In this case, the number of order items (#PO items) is displayed on the secondary value axis.
The configuration of the secondary value axis is pretty similar to the configuration of the Primary Value Axis.

By default, the value axis try to cover all values, starting at 0 (Auto-range). However, you can focus your graph on a specific range, by activating the Manual-range checkbox:
Please note however, that a range only applies for the axis, that you apply this range on. The primary value axis won't be affected.

Ticks are small, horizontal label lines that are displayed between your value axis and its labels:
By default, ticks are enabled and thus visible in your graph for all axis.
To hide the tick lines, deactivate the Display tick lines checkbox. By disabeling Auto-tick count you can enter a number. Only this number (if greater than 0) of ticks and labels will be visible on your axis.
Please note, that this does also affect your gridlines.
