Text Component
  • Use a Text Component, to display static or dynamic text in your analysis sheet.

  • You may for example use a text component to display instructions, explanations, or further information regarding your analysis.

  • However, you can also use it to display a dynamic number that is derived from a KPI.

  • A great application of the text component is to display the net value or the number of orders in a process cockpit.

  • Please note, however, that the numbers are derived from KPIs and therefore they are set up to follow selections.
