Defining KPI ranges

Define KPI ranges to specify a High Value and a Low Value for each of the scoring ranges defined for a KPI.

Specify a Normal Score that corresponds with each high and low value for a KPI range. The normal score for a child KPI is rolled up to any parent KPIs when calculating the Current Value and Normal Score for the parent KPIs.

For example, a child KPI measures the productivity of a production line during a month. The target goal for the KPI is 200,000 units per month. If the production line produces between 200,000 to 133,333 units per month, the normal score for the KPI is 3, which indicates an excellent score. 133,332 to 66,666 units is 2, which indicates an average score. 66,665 units or less is 1, which indicates a poor score.

Note: You should maintain consistency when defining normalized scores for KPI ranges. For example, if you define a normalized score based on a scale of 1 to 3 for one KPI, use that same scale for other KPIs.

Note: You cannot enter a Normal Score if the KPI is a parent KPI.

To define KPI ranges:

Select Administration > Start Center Setup > KPI Setup.
Select the KPI for which to define KPI ranges, and then click the Ranges tab.
Click Add Range.
Specify this information:

Low Value

Specify the value for the low threshold of the KPI range.

High Value

Specify the value for the high threshold of the KPI range.

Normal Score

Specify the numeric value that represents the score based on the values entered for Low Value and High Value.

Image Path

Specify the URL file path to the image the system will use to display the KPI range on the Start Center. To enter the path to the image, Type must be Image on the KPI Setup screen.

Color

Select the color to use to display the KPI range on the Start Center. To specify the color, Type cannot be Image on the KPI Setup screen.

Description
