Figure 9.9 Adding a dashboard item
select the dashboard you want to add a new report item to. This will take you to
the add Dashboard item window shown in Figure 9.8.
no matter how you ended up at the add Dashboard item window, your first
task is to choose the visualization form. Think about your choice carefully. You cannot
change it later, and a random visualization form could destroy an otherwise great KPi,
simply because it will not have the effect that you intended if it is not visualized in the
correct way. (More details on this later in the chapter.)
You choose the visualization by clicking the appropriate icon, which takes you
into the second and most important step of adding the dashboard item. This second
step, shown in Figure 9.10, allows you to select the following:
r
231
eporting Metric
D
ashboard item name
r
eporting Period
a
ction
P
lacement
C
omparative period
o
ptional Top group
V
isitor segment
These properties are specific to the item, which means that you will never see all
of them at the same time.
Figure 9.10 On this screen, you select properties specific to the item.
