Define a derived metric
Derived metrics are calculated from other metrics you have previously defined.

Do one of the following:
-
From the Guide section, under Define Metrics, click the Add new metric link.
-
On the Documents Tree, right-click Metrics and select New Metric.
-
- Locate the Derived Metric section and click the Create button associated with it.
- Assign a name to the metric.
-
Click the
Definition tab, and then
click
Edit expression.
The Expression Editor appears.
- Click Metrics on the left menu bar to select which metrics to use to create the derived metric calculations.
- Click and drag the selected metrics to the Expression Editor window, and then click OK.
-
Click the
Dimensions tab.
You do not define dimensions for a derived metric because it inherits them automatically from the metrics from which it is built.
- On the Results Format list, select the preferred format.
