These metrics can then be visualized and added to dashboards for deeper insights and reporting. #### Accessing the Metrics Library - Navigate to the **Metrics Library** section from the left-hand menu. - You will see a list of existing metrics with details such as: - **Name** (e.g., "SAR per Jurisdiction") - **Type** (Row/Bar) - **Last Updated Date** This overview helps you quickly identify and manage existing metrics. #### Creating a New Metric To create a new custom metric: 1. Click **Create Metrics** at the top-right of the screen. 2. The setup interface will open. #### Selecting Your Starting Data - Under **Data**, pick the dataset you want to analyze. - Use the search bar to find relevant datasets (e.g., *API Requests*, *Crowdfunding Accounts*). - Select the dataset as your base for building the metric. #### Adding Filters - Use the **Filter** option to narrow down results. Example: Show only API requests from a specific jurisdiction or timeframe. This step ensures your metric focuses on the data most relevant to your compliance goals. #### Summarizing Data - In the **Summarize** section, select: - A **function or metric** (e.g., Count, Sum, Average). - A **column to group by** (e.g., Country, Transaction Type). - This allows you to structure data in a meaningful way. Example: *Count of SARs grouped by Jurisdiction*. #### Visualizing Your Metric - Once filters and summaries are defined, click **Visualize**. - The system generates a visualization of your data. - Different types of metrics (Row, Bar, etc.) provide flexible visualization options depending on the selected data. #### Managing Individual Metrics For each metric in the **Metrics Library**, you have additional management options available via the context menu (three dots on the right-hand side of the metric row). #### Available Options: 1. **Delete** - Permanently removes the metric from the library. - Use this when a metric is no longer needed or has been replaced. 2. **View Metric** - Opens the metric to review its configuration and visualization. - Useful for auditing or making sure the metric is aligned with compliance requirements. 3. **Add to Dashboard** - Integrates the selected metric directly into a dashboard. - Recommended for metrics you want to track regularly (e.g., *SAR per Jurisdiction*). **Tip:** Regularly update and refine metrics to reflect evolving compliance requirements and operational needs. -
