Tracking Metric Change History
For historical and tracking purposes, select metrics to track their history including when a metric value changed, who made the change, where the change was made, and the value of the metric before and after the change. Metric history is available for reporting purposes.
Important! Tracking metric history has the potential to create a large amount of history information. Consider carefully which metrics require history tracking, and track only those you need for historical purposes.
To set a metric for tracking history:
- Create a metric.
- Select the Track History check box.
- Click Apply to save your changes.
Metric History Reporting
Metric history is available for reporting using the Metric Change History column set available in the Projects subject in Accolade Online Reporting and in the functionality available in the Accolade Office Extensions add-in. Use the columns available in the Trended Metric History column set available in the Projects subject to trend metric values as gate decisions and project migration events occur.
The columns available in the Trended Metric History column set provide the ID of the stage within a project where the update was made. Stage IDs correspond to the placement of the stage in the Phase Gate sequence in the project. For example, a Stage ID 1 indicates the first stage; 2 indicates the stage pair that follows the first gate, and so on. Using a Stage ID column in the report provides insight into a metric value at a particular stage in the project without having to map a date to a stage duration.
See Creating Online Reports within Accolade and Reporting Columns - Projects Subject for information about creating a report and the columns available within the Projects subject to create a trended view.
