Create groups of measures

You can create groups of measures to help organize them in grids. For example, you might place all measures related to sales or trade spending together under a group. Measure groups are not available in all widget types and cannot be saved or shared between widgets.

To create groups of measures

  1. Select a grid that can show multiple measures, such as a Comparative.

  2. Use one of the following methods to access the Measures area:
    In any mode: Click the  button at the top of the widget. In the pop-up menu, click Edit Measures.
    In explore mode: Click the Measures area of the toolkit.

  3. Add the measures you want to show in the widget if you haven't already. Only these measures will be available for placement into the groups.

  4. Click the Create New Group link above the Selected Measures window.

  5. In the pop-up window, check the measures to include in the group.

  6. Type a group name.

  7. Click Save.

  8. Repeat to add more groups.
