Create Composite Metrics

1 Concept

Composite metrics are calculated through arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division on multiple metrics (atomic metrics, composite metrics). You can define calculation relationships between different metrics according to business needs, such as Channel A sales ratio = Channel A sales / (Channel A sales + Channel B sales) or Channel A sales / Total sales.

2 Operation Steps

  1. Select "Metrics Center > Metric Topics" in the navigation bar, click the "New Metric" button, and select "Composite Metric".

  2. In the "New Composite Metric" dialog, set the basic properties, calculation properties, and management properties of the composite metric.
