I think jfreechart (
http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/) is a better
package to look at. It is LGPL also and is much more powerfull and
well referenced.
I do not know NetSuite but I see how chart portlets are used in JIRA.
They are based on jfreechart and allows users to show the chart he
wants setting some portlet parameter.
We have portlet parameters in OFBiz also.
So, for instance, the order manager application could define a portlet
that shows a bar chart of number of orders issued over time.
Then the user who wants such a chart on his portal page can place the
portlet and set the attributes that could be for instance the time
interval (one bar for each day or for each week) and some filter
attributes to select orders.
