Fuse Summary Metric Report

Publish a summary of all metrics that have the Publish Metric option selected on the Metrics tab. The results are published to a Microsoft Excel workbook and the data for each ribbon view (group of metrics) displays on a separate tab.

In addition to the ribbon view tabs for each group of metrics, this report includes summary tabs based on the metric folder structure of the included metrics. For example, if you set all of the Industry Standards » GAO metrics to be included in the Summary report, the report will include tabs with summary results for each of the GAO metric folders.

When you publish metrics, 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.

To ensure that all metrics are grouped correctly, you can click Sync Groups in the Metrics menu group on one of the Metrics forms to synchronize the folder structures across all of the Metrics forms (Metrics, Work Package Metrics, and Control Account Metrics).

The metric exception tables are grouped so that the metric information is visible but the details of the exceptions are collapsed by default. The rows that were not exceptions in the previous period are shaded.

The Program Summary 2 tab includes a one line summary of all metrics groups that are also shown vertically on the Program Summary tab. It also includes a one line summary of all of the published metrics that are also shown on the detailed tabs. These one line summaries provide an easy way to copy and compare multiple projects in Excel.

If you don't have identical structures across the Metrics forms, the report will include more tabs since less data will be consolidated.

You can publish this report on the S2 // Diagnostics tab. In the Publish menu group, click Publish > Fuse Summary Metric Report.

All metrics that have the Publish Metric option selected on the relevant Metric form are published.

The report includes:

  • Hyperlinks to folder summaries (for example, a link from the Program-Summary tab to the Organization tab) and links to ribbon view summaries.
  • A Details table for each metric in a group, regardless of whether the metric passes or fails the test for the current period.
  • A detailed tab for each metric group, regardless of whether or not it has a tripwire.
