You can see the description and owner of the index KPI.

You can see the standard KPIs associated with the index KPI. Some standard KPIs may be weighted more or less than others depending on their importance. If they are not weighted equally, then their weights appear in parentheses. Each standard KPI is a link to the KPI Details view.

For more information, see KPI Details.

You can review the calculation method used on the standard KPI index values to calculate the index KPI's score.

The colored dial shows the range of acceptable and unacceptable colors. There may be three or five colors depending on how your strategy management administrator set up the application. The colored dial points to the current status color of the index KPI. This color is also represented numerically as the index KPI's score.

The index KPI's status indicator color is determined as follows. First, the status color of each standard KPI is matched to the same color in the colored dial. Based on the color match, each standard KPI is assigned that numeric value. The standard KPI numeric values are then used in the specified calculation method. The resulting value from the calculation is the index KPI's score. This score is matched to the appropriate color in the colored dial, and that color is used for the index KPI's status indicator.

The table shows the standard KPIs that this index KPI is associated with, the perspectives for those standard KPIs, and the context. This view has the same format as the Scorecard Overviews view except that it is showing you a filtered view of the associated KPIs rather than all KPIs. This table shows you the status indicator colors of the standard KPIs that are used to determine the status indicator color of the index KPI.

For information about the Scorecard Overviews view, see Scorecard Overviews View.

For information about the columns that appear in the table, see Format Selections.

You can filter the KPIs by standard filters such as time period, latest date, dimension filters, responsible user, and status.

For more information, see Standard Filters.
