5.1. Editing an (new) indicator created by the user

The table in the window for editing an (new) indicator created by the user (see Fig. 14) lists indicators included in the calculation and shows the calculation formula. When editing your own indicator, you can:

• change the indicator name;
• change data periodicity. Monthly data can be transformed into quarterly or yearly data while quarterly data can be made yearly data. If periodicity is modified, the indicator values are calculated automatically based on the indicator collection attribute (outstanding amounts at the end of the period, total amounts per period, average percentage);
• change the number of digits after the decimal point;
• change units of measurement;
• change the calculation formula. To use a standard calculation formula, choose “Sum” or “Average” in the field “Calculate new (derivative) indicator”. To use a different formula, choose “Add formula” in the said field and enter your formula in the field “Calculation formula” using indicator abbreviations and standard arithmetic functions, e.g. (A+B)/2;
• remove or add new indicators from/to calculations of a new indicator.

After introducing the changes click “Save and close”.
