Use cases (MVP)

Add metric

In order to add metrics to your Unit, you should first find the Unit you need inside the widget structure or use global hierarchy/search for that purpose.

There are two ways to add metrics to the Unit directly, in case you have permissions to manage the Unit:

• click “+” button that appears hovering a row with a Unit name

• use “Add Metric” button inside the dots menu on the right

Clicking any of these buttons triggers a pop-up with catalog and community metrics that allows later to select and save metrics you might need to the Unit.

Create metric

If there is no required metric you need in the list, you can simply create a new one clicking “add a new metric” button on the bottom left. There is also a button “Create My Metric” button displayed , if no matching items were found using the catalog search.

Using one of the options opens a new another pop-up “Add My Metric” that, after being filled in, adds the metric for metric creation. Before it actually could be added to the community catalog all required data should be filled in.

Here you should fill in all put down or select the mandatory information regarding metric parameters:

• Metric name

• Metric Unit of Measurement

• Thresholds

• Health Dimension

Description is an optional field, that should be not more than 200 symbols.

After a metric is created, the system takes you back to the previous Catalog pop-up, where the metric will be automatically checked in and you can just Save it to the Unit by clicking the action button.

GIF approach: TBD

Update metric

It’s possible to update metrics in the table with inline editing. Simply, fill in new values, put comments if needed, “Save” your changes. You can update values simultaneously for the whole unit Unit and save the results.

Your metrics statuses will be automatically changed and aggregated in the bar chart. Each parent unit has aggregated statuses from all child ones.

GIF approach: TBD

Remove metric

In order to remove metrics, you should use “dots” menu on the right , clicking of the metric row and simply click the “Remove Metric” button.

Change thresholds

There are two ways to change metric thresholds:

• change default thresholds when adding metric from the catalogCatalog
  

  

• change thresholds after metric has been already added to the unit, updating the valuesUnit

  • hovering the benchmark value in the table shows an a “tune” icon on the right,

  • by clicking the icon a popover will be triggered with “Change Thresholds” button

  • there should be a reason for changing the value/values, so comment is mandatory here

GIF approach:Additional details TBD TBD

No-thresholds metrics

In case you need to track some kind of a metric without defined thresholds and you want to set its status manually with fully individual point of reference (benchmark), welcome to “no thresholds” metrics.
