Quick Calculation Guide
To make metrics support flexible data analysis scenarios, the metric platform provides quick calculation capabilities on the metric query side.
Quick calculation consists of three parts: quick derivation, time limits, and business limits.
Quick Derivation
The quick derivation module provides quick configuration for period-over-period comparison, ranking, and percentage of total. Its calculation logic is exactly the same as the calculation logic in metric definitions.
Description
If a metric already has a derivation method, such as period-over-period comparison configured in the metric definition, it cannot be derived again in quick derivation.
Period-Over-Period Comparison
| Metric Type | Availability Conditions for Period-Over-Period Comparison |
|---|---|
| Basic metric | Metric date is used in grouping or filtering. |
| Metric with a time limit | Meets either of the following conditions: * Metric date is used in grouping. * Metric date exists in filtering and is a point-in-time filter. |
Ranking
No special restrictions.
Percentage of Total
No special restrictions.
Time Limits
Add a time limit to a metric.
Description
If a metric already has a time limit, adding another time limit is not supported.
Business Limits
You can add business limits to a metric. There are no special restrictions.
