KPI Manager overview

Use the KPI Manager widget to work with KPIs directly from a dashboard interface. Using the KPI Manager widget, you can define, copy, and modify KPIs; view KPI properties; view and create alerts for KPIs; and configure settings for collecting history and prediction data.

Getting started using KPI Manager

When you first open KPI Manager, you must choose the business process model for which you want to see KPIs.
  1. From your Business Space or portlet-based dashboard, open a KPI Manager widget.
  2. The Model field contains a list of business process models that you are authorized to view. Select the business process model for which you want to see KPIs. The KPIs are displayed.
  3. In the Version field, select Latest (default) to see a list of current KPIs or select All to see a list of all KPIs that have been created for the model you selected. The listed is rendered. The KPI Manager displays the following KPI information by default:
    • KPI Name - The title of the KPI. You can click on the KPI name to see the properties.
    • Created - The method of creation for the KPI. Modeled means the KPI was created at the model level. Dashboard means the KPI was created using the dashboard.
    • Owner - The name of the user who owns the KPI.
    • Type - An aggregate KPI has a value that is based on the metric and aggregation method you select. An expression KPI has a value that is based on other KPIs or user defined functions, using an XPath expression that you define.
    • Access - A shared KPI means that other dashboard users have access to view the KPI. A private KPI means that the KPI is not shared with other dashboard users.
