Scorecard Metric Values Overwritten (multiple refreshes in 1 day)

Hello,

 

I'm trying to use a scorecard metric to track some errors. The issue is that the underlying dataset refreshes multiple times a day, and the value may change from 0, to 1, to 0 throughout the day. When you click on the metric, the graph only shows the latest value that day.

 

If the value is 1 and you do a manual check-in, then the dataset refreshes and the value changes to 0, it will show in your Check-in history that the "New value" was 0 even though it was definitely 1 when you did the check-in...

 

Is there any way to see how the values change over time?

 

I tried looking at the dataset it creates for the scorecard, but looks like the daily value just overwrites itself every refresh...

 

Thanks.

Hi @tmjones2 ,

Regarding your need to see how the indicator changes over time, you can set the indicator tracking period to achieve.
Open your scorecard and click 'edit', then clicking on ‘Time period’ and choose ‘Cycle to date’. If you select "Period to date", this means that the indicator will show the month-to-date or year-to-date change.
