Also, is there a way to include more than one primary metric?

Hi Andrew,

I hope all is well,

Unfortunately neither is possible... As per our wiki, the Primary Metric is the main measurement in the report thus therefore only allowing us to have this set first when setting up a Report Summary. Having added the first, this will then give you the option to add the Secondary Metric.

Can I ask the reason behind wanting to add only a Secondary Metric? I only ask as you would get similar results at the output view.

Hi,

Thank you for the quick reply. Reason i ask is that some of the features available for the primary metric (target comparison, variance, etc.) would be nice to have for multiple primary metrics. Alternatively i could see us utilizing a list of secondary metrics just showing a list of sums or averages with the same formatting, minus the primary metric. The primary metric appears larger and format is slightly different so just for visual ascetics i see this as a possible enhancement if not available currently.

Hi Andrew,

Just to be clear you wish to raise an idea to have the option of being able to use multiple Primary Metrics for Report Summaries?
