Abstract: An aspect of the technology described relates to a dashboard creation system for generating dashboards displaying key performance indicator (KPI) information. The dashboard creation system includes: a business database comprising a plurality of business values; an intermediate table comprising intermediate data; and at least one KPI record. In some implementations, the intermediate data includes: an intermediate value corresponding to a selected plurality of the business values; and an intermediate link identifying the corresponding selected plurality of business values. Also, the KPI record may include: a KPI value corresponding to the intermediate value; a KPI link corresponding to the intermediate link and identifying the corresponding selected plurality of the business values; and a KPI format corresponding to a desired graphical format for depicting the KPI value. A processor may be provided to render the KPI value in the KPI format.

Abstract: An aspect of the technology described relates to a dashboard creation system for generating dashboards displaying key performance indicator information. The dashboard creation system includes: a business database comprising a plurality of business values; an intermediate table comprising intermediate data; and at least one key performance indicator record. In some implementations, the intermediate data includes: an intermediate value corresponding to a selected plurality of the business values; and an intermediate link identifying the corresponding selected plurality of business values. Also, the key performance indicator record may include: a key performance indicator value corresponding to the intermediate value; a key performance indicator link corresponding to the intermediate link and identifying the corresponding selected plurality of the business values; and a key performance indicator format corresponding to a desired graphical format for depicting the key performance indicator value.
