Add new contributing indicators based on your organizational preferences.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_sd.success_dashboard_admin

## About this task

Your organization can add the new contributing sources as the primary indicator. For example, determining the automated catalog request completions can be added to Automated Resolutions.

## Procedure

1. Create a Performance Analytics (PA) indicator and its data collection job that measures the daily score (count) of the metric that you need to measure.  
   The description set for this PA indicator is used to describe the indicator when the user selects the information icon on the score card. Alternatively, if you already have a PA indicator that measures daily scores of the metric you need to measure, you can directly proceed to register and use the PA indicator.

   For information about permissions required to create a PA indicator, see [Performance Analytics roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=r_PARoles&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US).
2. Register the PA indicator against the Primary Indicator that it must be reported in by creating a record in the Contributing Indicator Registry \[sn_sd_contributing_indicator_registry\] table.
   1. Navigate to Allsn_sd_contributing_indicator_registry.list.
   2. Select New.
   3. On the form, fill in the fields.
