Key Performance Indicators KPIs [SharePoint]

By -

  • KPI(Key Performance Indicators) is a visual aid to help to represent the progress status
  • KPI is a visual aid to help communicate the progress achieved towards an already specified goal. These are of relevant importance to managers and teams which work in the business sector since by the means of KPI one can evaluate the amount of progress made towards achieving a goal.

 KPI Styles

In order to make use of KPIs, one needs to decide from where the data is going to be achieved:
 From SharePoint lists: used to keep track of totals (ex total number of sales or how long it has taken a person to finish up a project phase). It is also used to count items that are found in a workflow or contains dates and/or to calculate the completion percentage of a task.
From SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services: a system administrator or database analyst sets up these KPIs and then registers the data connection with SP service.
From manually entered information: this is usually used to track projects.
From Excel workbooks (Office): used to set up KPIs in Office Excel and linking them to the KPI from SharePoint Server. When data in the Excel sheet changes, the KPI is updated automatically
