Target Design

Assign a Metric Group to a Target Field

Metric groups are a subcategory of field groups and provide a way to further organize data for metrics tracking and mapping.

A metric group can only be assigned to a Target field if the Target is in a design status of In Design.

NOTE: Metric groups cannot be assigned to fields when they are cloned for field groups. They can only be assigned to fields that are assigned to the default mapping group (*). For example, three field groups have been added in Target Design (FERT, HALB, and ROH). The field PSTAT is assigned to all three field groups and the default field group (*). A metric group can be added to the PSTAT field assigned to the default (*) field group, but cannot be assigned to the PSTAT field assigned to the FERT, HALB or ROH field groups.

To assign a metric group to a field in Target Design:

  1. Select Design in the Context bar.
  2. Click the Targetsicon on the Design page.
  3. Click the Fields icon for a Target.
  4. Click the Vertical View icon for the field that should belong to the metric group.
  5. Click Edit.

  6. Either:

    Select an option in the Metric Group ID combo box.

    OR

    Click the + sign to add a metric group. Refer to Add a Metric Group for more information.

  7. Click Save.

NOTE: Once the metric group is assigned to a Target field, it displays on the Field Mappings page in Map.
