Breakdown View Component

Important:

The Breakdown View component is automatically wired to the KPI View, Historical View, and KPI Rolodex component that appears on the same Dashboard page. This means, that when you select a KPI in the KPI View component, its KPI Breakdowns are listed in the Breakdown List and you can select to display the relevant one. You cannot configure the Breakdown View component.
Note To display data in the Metric Breakdown report in an Xcelsius component or in a Metric Breakdown component, you must add the Historical Metric View component to the page . When you click the graph of a specific Metric in the Historical Metric View component, the list of its Metric Breakdowns is displayed in the Metric Breakdown report list. You can then display the relevant Metric Breakdown information.
