Performance Analytics uses data collection jobs to collect and clean scores and snapshots. You can also set indicator scores manually.

To collect data immediately for existing records, run a historical data collection job.

For ongoing data collection, choose one of the following methods to collect indicator scores and snapshots based on the frequency and integrity of your data.

  • If you need to measure an indicator once a month, quarter, or year, enter scores manually or import scores.
  • If you need to measure indicators more frequently, or you want to eliminate any human involvement, use a scheduled data collection job.
Note: Performance Analytics snapshots are the lists of records (sys_ids) that are collected at the time that the scores for those records are collected. A snapshot is made only for automated indicators with Collect records selected.

Performance Analytics data collection jobs do not collect scores older than specified in the property com.snc.pa.dc.keep_snapshots_for. Scores or snapshots older than this value are not collected during data collection.
