Definition

Specifies the value at which the status of a key figure turns from red to yellow.

Use

You define a type for each key figure. Key figures can have the type positive, negative, or bidirectional (both directions). You determine a value range, defined by a minimum and maximum value, a target value, and threshold values for each key figure. The system uses these values to determine the key figure status.

Note the following color scale:

  • Positive key figure: Minimum Value -> Red -> Yellow -> Green -> Maximum Value
  • Negative key figure: Minimum Value -> Green -> Yellow -> Red -> Maximum Value
  • Bidirectional key figure: Minimum Value -> Red - > Yellow -> Green -> Yellow -> Red -> Maximum Value

You define threshold values for each key figure; when this key figure value is reached, the key figure switches to another color area.

Example

Positive key figure: The higher the value, the better the key figure. An example of this type of key figure is the numbers of hours worked.

Negative key figure: The higher the value, the worse the key figure. An example of this type of key figure is the number of sick days in a specific period of time.

Bidirectional key figure: The key figure is negative if it deviates too much from the target value in either direction of the scale. An example of this type of key figure is the temperature for storing a specific material. If the temperature sinks too far below a certain value, it is just as critical as exceeding a certain temperature value.
