Modifying a Performance Indicator Created From a KPI Template

When you create a performance indicator from a template, you might need to modify the indicator so that it uses specific data in the calculation. In order to do this, you will need to modify the calculation inputs.

If you have created the indicator from an APM KPI template, the description indicates the types of changes you need to make. Typically, this will involve editing one or more of the filter criteria in the calculation input.

If you wish to measure monetary values from sites that use different currencies, be sure to adjust your KPIs to perform the conversion to a base currency. For more information, see Introduction to Performance Indicators.
