Recalculate Metrics
Recalculating a metric does the following:
- Recalculates the metric value (if the metric is a calculated one)
- Checks to see if the metric target value has changed and (if so) updates the formatted warning and danger display values
- Updates the associated metric indicator if any of the above changes requires it
Note: A Metric item will only be updated if any of the values in the metric changed.
There are four ways for you to recalculate metrics:
- On a case by case basis - when you open a metric item for editing and save it, it automatically recalculates
- Using the Update Project Metrics list ribbon button to recalculate all the metrics in the list
-
Click Items | Update Project Metrics.
