The Metrics tab in the right pane of the Projects tab displays a record of all events that
have occurred for the current project. This includes how much of the project has been
completed, how many tasks remain, the time spent on the project to date, the sequence
in which tasks were performed, who worked on each task, and how long each task took
to complete. Because the Metrics tab records information each time a task is run, you
can investigate false starts and task failures. When a project is completed, you can use
its metrics information to help you estimate future projects.
The Metrics tab is available only for projects that have processes. Security Setup
determines whether you have access to the Metrics tab.
Project-level information
The following information is displayed at the top of the Metrics tab:
Actual Start Date
If the first task is associated with a tool, the start date is recorded when a user first
clicks the Run link for that task. If the first task is manual, the start date is recorded
when the user marks the task's check box or moves to the next task.
Actual Completion Date
The date when the last task in the project is marked complete.
Elapsed Time
The total amount of time (in HH:MM:SS format) the project has been open in the
Active Project list. This will not match the Total Measured Time because it does
not measure the time for manual tasks, or a user might have the project open
without working on a specific task.
% of Tasks Completed
The number of tasks completed divided by the total number of tasks.
# of Tasks Remaining
The number of tasks that are not complete.
Total Measured Time
The total of the measured times for all tasks, in HH:MM:SS format.
Task-level information
The list section of the Metrics tab displays an entry for each task in the project.
Information for a manual task entry is recorded when the task's check box is marked or
cleared, or when the user moves to the next task. Information for a tool-related task
entry is recorded when the task's Run link is clicked, or when the task's check box is
marked or cleared.
Each time a task that is associated with a tool is run, a tool entry appears as a child of
the task entry. To display tool entries, click the plus sign to the left of a task entry. To
