Dashboard KPI Widget Delta Change
Trying to understand how to correctly use the dashboard KPI Widget Delta change feature.
My scenario:
I have a chart/gauge report called 'Alerts today' that counts the # of alert records based on an Alert Date field. The report is filtered where the Alert Date is during the current day
I then created a Dashboard KPI widget and selected the Alerts Today report. I want to take advantage of the Delta Change feature and selected the same Alert Date field as the 'Field for Comparison' and the comparison period as 'Yesterday'. My hope was this would show some kind of "delta change" of the # of alerts from today compared to the # of alerts from yesterday. But the delta change is always showing the value of alerts from today.
For example- if we received 100 alerts yesterday and 20 alerts today I was hoping 'delta change' would show either "↓80 alerts but instead its showing "↑20". I'm assuming I have some conflict between the filter in my report looking for alerts from today and then setting the comparison date to yesterday. In which case I appreciate any help as to how I might meet my requirement which is to show a KPI widget that displays alerts with and alert date from today and shows the delta change compared to the # of alerts with an alert date of yesterday.
Thanks.
