Hi All,

 

Today I will cover the real time basic example of Indicator Sources in PA

 

The following settings create an indicator source that collects new incidents daily:

  • Name: Incidents.New
  • Frequency:Daily
  • Facts table:Incident [incident]
  • Condition:[Opened] [on] [Today]

 

Create indicator sources

It will give you the today's opened incidents when the scores are collected against this Indicator..

 

Very Imp Point:

 

Indicator source should always include a date-related filter, such as [Opened][on][Today]\

 

Tip:

  • Indicator source conditions on text fields are not case-sensitive.
  • Conditions set on indicator sources and indicators all apply.
  • For an indicator to display real-time scores, set a condition either on the indicator or the indicator source.
  • Due to the reusability of indicator sources, use only high-level criteria to define indicator source conditions. Use the advanced filters on individual indicators to go deeper into the data.
  • Indicator sources should have at least one date condition, such as [Created][on][Today].
  • Usually, your date conditions should refer to the same time period as the indicator frequency. For example, conditions about the number of days should only be on daily indicators. Conditions about the number of months should only be on monthly indicators.
  • Avoid dot-walking to the sys_id or display value of a table. Instead, use the reference field by itself, to avoid creating unnecessary joins.
  • If you design the indicator source conditions well, at least one of the indicators on that source does not have any additional conditions of its own.

 

Optionally:

 

Select Override record collection, then enter a value in Maximum number of records collected. You are overriding the default value set on the property com.snc.pa.dc.max_row_count_indicator_source

 

Hope this helps.
