Configure KPIs

1. Access Dashboards > Configuration > KPI Dashboards > Configure KPI
2. Create a new KPI specifying the computation method and the kpi type
   1. Number: result must contain a value and, if needed, a previous
   2. Meter: To show a percentage value, result must contain value. value must be a positive integer between 0 to 100. Meter is implemented with GaugeMeter (https://github.com/Mictronics/GaugeMeter). It can be customized by setting parameters for GaugeMeter in result. See https://github.com/Mictronics/GaugeMeter#parameter-definitions for details.
   3. Graph: result must contain a list on graphs containing values, title and key
3. In order to compute the KPI you can use a predefined function from a model or use the code to directly compute it.

Using KPI with code

Define the code directly on the code field. You can use self and model as the kpi element The script should create a variable called result as a dictionary that will be stored as the value. For example, we can use:

result = {}
result['value'] = len(model.search([('id', '=', %s)]))
result['previous'] = len(model.search([('id', '!=', %s)]))

Configure dashboards

1. Access Dashboards > Configuration > KPI Dashboards > Configure Dashboards
2. Create a new dashboard and specify all the standard parameters on Widget configuration
3. Append elements on KPIs
4. You can preview the element using the dashboard view
5. You can create the menu entry directly using the Generate menu button
