Creating and Editing Metrics

Once initial setup is complete, metrics can be created.

For more information on initial setup steps, refer to the Initial Setup for Metrics topic.

Creating a Metric Object

1. In System Setup, right-click the Setup Group Root that holds metrics, and then click New Metric.

2. Enter an ID and a Name for the metric, and then click create. The metric is added as a child below the selected Setup Group Root.

Configuring a Metric

Once the metric object has been created, a metric type must be specified and configured.

1. Select the metric that you just created, and then, on the Metric tab, click Edit.

2. In the Edit Metric Configuration editor, select the relevant metric type from the dropdown. Each metric type requires different configuration steps.

Options include:

• Aggregator Metrics

• Attribute Comparison Metric

• Attribute Value Analysis Metric

• Business Function Metrics

• Conditional Attribute Value Metric

• Number of Referenced Target Objects Metric

• PDX Channel Metric

• Completeness Metrics

• Value Metrics

Set a Default Metric

When a metric is set as the default metric, the completeness meter shown on an object's editor tab displays the value from the default metric.

1. In System Setup, expand the Setup Group Root that holds metrics, and then select the metric you want to apply as default.
2. On the Metric tab, in the Description area, select Default.
