  • Tiles also have a click through feature that allows you to see a graph and table of all the latest test results, for each profile that is used to calculate the latest test average. 
  • You will not be able to edit the metrics for the chart at the bottom of the Dashboard, but rather change which longitudinal chart you wish to display. Charts are pulled straight from the respective reports page, therefore the metrics you have selected for each of the longitudinal charts in the reports pages will be displayed.
Reports Page

  • The Relative Test Metrics Chart displays the % of latest test average, for the selected metrics in relation to the 100% reference line (average of all groups selected over the time period selected). 
  • The Longitudinal chart allows for a primary and secondary metric (y-axis) to be selected with metric data being shown over time (x-axis). 
  • The Comparison chart also allows for a primary and secondary metric (y-axis) to be selected with the metric data being displayed for profiles (x-axis).
