Create a Key Performance Indicator for Analysis Cubes

If you use Vantagepoint Analysis Cubes, you can create key performance indicators (KPIs) to apply to Vantagepoint Intelligence workbooks. You can create KPIs for the project data cube only.

To create a key performance indicator:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > General > Analysis Cubes.
  2. On the Analysis Cubes form, click the Key Performance Indicators tab.
  3. Click New KPI to insert a blank row in the grid.
  4. In the Key Performance Indicators grid, enter information for the new KPI.
  5. To create a specific goal and override an individual record entered in the Key Performance Indicators grid, click anywhere in the KPI row and then do the following:
    1. In the Specific Goals grid, click New Goal to insert a blank row in the grid.
    2. In the blank row, enter information for the specific goal.
    3. Use the Distribute Annual and Reset Annual options to distribute monthly goals.
    4. Repeat steps a and b for as many specific goals as you need.
  6. Click Save.

Post-requisite: Whenever you create or modify the selections on the Key Performance Indicators tab, you must contact your system administrator to run a refresh to update the Analysis Cubes. Depending on your company's configuration of Vantagepoint, your system administrator runs the refresh or submits an Analysis Cubes Refresh request to the Deltek Cloud Ops.
