analysis metrics

Metrics that calculate strategic analysis values. Like tracking metrics, analysis metrics are defined in the Metrics Definitions table (afm_metric_definitions) and can have trending directions and warning levels. However, unlike tracking metrics, analysis metrics:

are intended for strategic analysis and are typically on a yearly granularity, or they forecast multi-year conditions, such as 3-Year NPV or lifetime IRR
can include both past performance, such as actual energy consumption, and future values, such as estimated energy consumption for future years
are not displayed on home pages, but are displayed by a view, which can provide interactive filtering.

are not processed by the Metrics workflow rule, and their values are not saved to the ARCHIBUS Metric Trend Values (afm_metric_trend_values) table. Analysis metrics are updated using the Update Analysis Metric action accessed from the Aggregate and Forecast Costs for ... task available from the Strategic Financial Analysis application.

The Strategic Financial Analysis application's Financial Analysis Console, and the Asset Management's Asset Lifecycle Console (Optimization tab) display analysis metrics.
