Step1: Verify and align KPI conditions to more accurately represent the data

If historical data needs to be collected because previous data is inaccurate, the correct configuration may not necessarily be what comes OOTB.

For example, if the customer uses a field other than 'resolved_at' to determine when an incident record is resolved, you may have to edit the Benchmarks indicators related to incident resolution accordingly.

Another example, if your implementation does not use priority 1 incidents, you can change the criteria for high priority KPIs from 1 to 0, which returns more accurate data for your organization.

Procedure:

• Navigate to Benchmarks > Setup and click a KPI to access the KPI conditions.

• Change the conditions, as appropriate to align with your table name and field value.• To link a Performance Analytics indicator to a Benchmarks indicator, click the Advanced related link.• In the Indicator Properties section, click the Linked indicator field lookup list.

• Select the corresponding Performance Analytics indicator.
