Computed Metric

When and how to add a computed metric on Locale

Computed metric

Through this metric, the user can perform various operations on the base metrics like adding them or subtracting them. It is important to note that the computed metric will change if the base metrics are changed by adding or removing filters. It will help the user better understand the relationship between the metrics.

Users can also create computed metrics using metrics of users, bikes, and so on, i.e. metrics across various entities. For example, if you want to find out revenue per bike, trips per bike, and so on.

For example, we can create the churn metric by using bookings and searches, i.e bookings-searches

🧭 Example

In order to create a metric that shows how many user cancellations have occurred, we provide the following entries:

• Metric Name - Churn

• Formula - Searches - Bookings

✨Note: The users can currently create this metric for two or metrics only. In the future updates you will be able to perform calculations on a single metric as well.
