Cards allow you to visualize the difference between the actual and target values using special delta values and a delta indicator. If the default layout is used (Stretched layout type), the card displays the following delta values/elements:
•Delta Indicator - Indicates whether the actual value is less or greater than the target value.
•Percent Variation and Absolute Variation - delta values that show a difference between the actual and target value. You can also display the Percent of Target value. To do this, customize the card's layout.
To customize settings that relate to the calculation and display of delta values/elements, invoke the Binding menu, click the required data item in the Cards section and go to Delta Options in the data item's menu.
Then, specify the following settings:
•Result Indication - You can specify the condition for displaying delta indication.
oGreater is Good - The 'good' indication is displayed if the actual value exceeds the target value; if the target value exceeds the actual value, the 'bad' indication displays.
oLess is Good - The 'bad' indication displays if the actual value exceeds the target value; if the target value exceeds the actual value, the 'good' indication displays.
oWarning if Greater - A warning displays only if the actual value exceeds the target value.
oWarning if Less - A warning displays only if the target value exceeds the actual value.
oNo Indication - Indication does not display.
•Threshold type / Threshold value - For instance, you can specify that a specific indication should display when the actual value exceeds the target value by 10% or by $2K. Use the Threshold type combo box to select whether you wish to specify the comparison tolerance in percentage values or absolute values. Then use the Threshold value box to specify the comparison tolerance.
