Increase the efficiency of data collection by configuring job indicators to collect
only necessary and sensible data.
Role required: admin, pa_admin
By default, a job indicator collects data for the
indicator itself and for all breakdowns that are associated with that indicator.
However, not all breakdown data might make sense for a particular data collection job.
For example, breakdowns that are based on fields that are likely to change over a
collection period, such as Assignment Group and State, are usually excluded from
historical jobs. Alternatively, you might need to collect only breakdown data and not to
calculate the indicator scores. You can configure a job indicator not to collect
unnecessary or meaningless data, thus reducing the resource consumption of the
job.
