There are 5 options in selecting a data source for the datablock.

From Measure - Use this option to display value from a measure or a KPI. You can even apply dimension filter to it.

Static - Any value entered under Current Value field will be displayed and this needs to be changed every time manually. This is ideally used for quick mockups.

Status Functionalities

Trend (TrendKPI)

In this example, we are trying to show the % of abandoned calls.

This whole datablock is used to show the current percentage of abandoned calls for the current month which is Oct 2018 and the trend in comparison to the previous month. The color of Status, its border, and up/down arrow is linked to the KPIs defined.

  • TrendKPI is configured as SUM(A) / SUM(B) *100  in KPI admin dashboard, the trend value is calculated based on (SUM(A) -SUM(B) )/SUM(B) *100

  • trendvalue >0  trend up

  • trendvalue <0 trend down

  • trendvalue =0  no trend

  • 0.07 - represents the percentage

  • 37.5% with up arrow - indicates the trend (% increase from previous month)

  • Oct 2018 - report member associated with the current value


Child Server Status

Here we are trying to show child server status as well for a particular Metrics. In order to do this, use metric as the data source as below.

When clicking on the status icon, the status color is propagated from all the children, and it will show the child metric status in the popup. The child metrics are getting from the metric service model. 


Alarm On Threshold Breach

In addition to color and image threshold, sound threshold is supported as well. It can sound an alarm if the value of a status is within the defined threshold range.

You can choose or upload a mp3 file by clicking the folder icon in the screenshot. An alarm option can be set in combination with either color or an image. You can stop the sound by clicking on the alarm icon in the status datablock.


Link to a Map
There are measure and report link types for status data block. To see these link types, dimension data source should be used for map.

Measure linktype will send measure and filters to map. Report linktype will only send filters.
