Use the ribbon commands to perform such tasks as create, rename, and delete metric groups.
This menu displays when you are in the Metrics view.
| Field/Option | Description |
|---|
| New Group
|
Click this command to create a new parent metric group into which you can store individual metrics.
|
| New Metric
|
Click this command to create a new metric within the currently selected metric group.
|
| Sync Groups
|
Click to synchronize the folder structures across the Metrics, Control Account Metrics, and Work Package Metrics forms. This is useful for when you publish metrics because the report combines metrics based on the folder hierarchy on the Metrics tab.
For example, if you have a
GAO metrics folder with a
1 Activities sub-folder on all of the Metrics forms, Acumen consolidates the data in the
1 Activities folder on all metrics forms into a single tab when it generates the report. Each report tab is then sorted using the ID entered on the Metric form.
If you don't have identical structures across the Metrics forms, the report will include more tabs since less data will be consolidated.
