Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche
Remarque :
This feature is part of the Core UI front end. It is not supported on Platform Analytics dashboards or UI Builder pages, except to a limited extent when migrated in compatibility mode. To build Platform Analytics components, see Data visualizations in Platform Analytics or Filters in Platform Analytics.
This feature is deprecated, meaning it is in maintenance mode and is no longer being augmented or changed. Only security fixes to this feature will be
addressed.
If the elements of a breakdown differ in favorability, or
if you want to compare each breakdown element against an indicator target, you can use a
treemap. Treemaps use nested rectangles with the size representing the relative
proportion of the element and the color representing the favorability.Figure 1. Treemap visualization
Procédure
Navigate to All > Performance Analytics > Widgets and click New.
In the Name field, give the widget a name that reflects
the information being displayed.
In the Type field, select
Breakdown.
If you change the value of Type after you fill in other
fields, those fields are cleared.
In the Visualization field, select
Treemap.
You can let the user switch between visualizations. Select Show
visualization selector in the Display
settings tab.
In the Indicator field, select the main indicator which
you want to break down.
Select the breakdown to group the scores.
You may also set a breakdown and element to filter the scores.
For the widget to show scores grouped by the elements of a breakdown,
select a breakdown in the Breakdown field. Do not
select an element or a second breakdown.
You can have the widget show different elements depending on
characteristics of the viewer. To do so, specify an elements filter in the
Element Settings tab. Do not specify an element
in the Element field. You can personalize only the
first-level breakdown elements. For more information, see Personalized visuals.
For the widget to show scores filtered by an element of one breakdown
then grouped by the elements of another breakdown, select the filtering
breakdown and element in the Breakdown and
Element fields. Then select the grouping
breakdown in the 2nd Breakdown field. The widget
shows scores for each element of the 2nd Breakdown
but only if they match the first Breakdown and
Element.
Remarque :
Second-level breakdowns must be enabled on the indicator record,
in the Collect breakdown matrix tab.
To have a second breakdown, Follow
element must be disabled. Dashboard breakdowns
count as one breakdown level of the two that are possible.
The widget can also show scores grouped by one breakdown and filtered by
an element that the user selects on a breakdown dashboard. Select the
grouping breakdown in the Breakdown field. Then
select Follow element as described in a later
step.
Important :
If the widget is for a formula indicator, all
contributing indicators in the formula must support the breakdown. Otherwise
an error message instead of a value appears in the widget on a
dashboard.
In the Coloring method field, select whether to rank the
favorability based on score, change to score, percent of change, or an indicator
target.
Select the color that indicates a positive in the Positive
color field.
Depending on the Coloring method, you may need to select
a Negative color
Facultatif : Fill in any of the following fields:
Field
Description
Time series
Run a function on the scores for a specific time period, such as
applying a 7-day sum or average. from being applied to the
indicator. For more information, see Applying time series aggregations.
Remarque :
Business and fiscal calendars do not support time
series aggregations. You cannot set a time series
aggregation on a widget for an indicator that uses
such a calendar.
Sort on
Sort direction
Sort the data on the Sort on attribute.
Then select whether to sort in ascending or descending
order.
Remarque :
The system attempts to sort the data based
on the scores from the latest collection job. If the
latest job did not collect any scores, the
Sort on setting is
ignored.
Color scheme
A spectrum of colors for the scores for all breakdowns.
If only one breakdown is shown, only the first color is
used.
If you do not specify a color scheme, the colors
defined in the system property
glide.ui.chart.default.colors
apply.
You can create your own color scheme
instead of using a provided color scheme. For more
information, see Create a color scheme.
Facultatif : Review the Settings tabs and change settings as desired.
