Measure assignment

A new measure (kidef) is created in the keyindicator configuration for each measure element. Both the keyword and display name of the measure are derived from the display name in Optimize.

The retriever type is always KEYINDICATOR. Unlike in Optimize, the standard aggregation is therefore always the calculation of averages. Other aggregations (for example, total or minimum) can be selected at the time of the query.

The data type of attributes that are created for measures is DOUBLE.

Process assignment

A measure is appended to the node in the PPM process tree in the same way as it appears in the Optimize configuration.

Assessment

The wizard assigns a positive assessment to every appended measure in the process tree. You can change the assessment assignment in CTK, if required.

Detection and handling of changes

When reimporting the Optimize configuration, the wizard does not immediately detect whether new measures have been added. Instead, it decides whether a new measure is created based on existing mappings between system event attributes and PPM attributes. In other words, a new kidef is only generated if no mapping exists.

The assignment to the process tree is also only carried out if no mapping exists.
