Configure thresholds
You can define thresholds for numeric and text columns to display the status of a KPI. A colored marker shows the threshold range in which a KPI value is located.
By default there are three traffic light phases plus the inactive phase.
Procedure
1. Click on Thresholds.
The option is only available if a column has already been assigned to the KPI.
2. SelectColor and shape in the drop-down menu to display the traffic light phases with different colored shapes.
3. Click on a color box to select a color and shape for each threshold phase.
4. SelectImage in the drop-down menu to use custom images instead of the colored shapes for each traffic light phase
5. Select an operator for each threshold to define the KPI value range, e.g., < (less than).
The available operators differ for numeric (e .g., < (less than) or = (equals to)) and text columns (e.g., starts with or is equal to).
6. Enter a value for each threshold.
You can either enter fix threshold values or you can choose columns from your data source representing dynamic threshold values. For dynamic threshold values only numeric data columns are allowed. Assign the required numeric data column from the data source to a threshold field via drag and drop.
7. Click on Plus button to add a threshold or click on Minus button to remove a threshold.
8. By default the traffic light phase is also visible if it is inactive (A KPI value is not available.). Deactivate the Inactive state option if the traffic light phase should not be visible. You can also change the color of the inactive traffic light phase. In case of a selected image you can only deactivate the Show inactive state option.
The thresholds are configured for the selected component.
