Setting Up Completeness Metrics

Completeness Metrics define what data is considered when evaluating the completeness of an object. Before completeness metrics can be created however, a Setup Group must be configured to hold them. Additionally, a Setup Group is also required if the user wants to migrate completeness scores to a Description attribute.

For more information, see the Migrating Completeness Scores to Description Attributes section of the Data Profiling documentation here.

  1. In System Setup, expand Object Types & Structures.
  2. Right-click Setup Group type root, and then choose New Object Type.
  3. Enter an ID, and a Name such as Completeness Metric, and then click Create.

The Setup Group appears as a child below Setup Group type root.

Next, you have to link the Completeness Metric object type to a Setup Group.

  1. In Object Types & Structures, expand Basic Object Types, then select Completeness Metric.
  2. On the References tab, click Add Parent.
  3. In the Select New Parent dialog, select the Setup Group you just created, then click Select to make it a valid parent.

Next, you have to create an instance of the Completeness Metric object.

  1. On the System Setup tab, click Maintain, mouse over Insert, and then select Setup Group Root.
  2. In the Create Setup Group Root dialog, select the object type you just created.

  1. Enter an ID and a Name, then click Create.

A Setup Group is created as a node in the System Setup hierarchy, and you can start creating completeness metrics.

For more information about creating completeness metrics and how to work with them, see the Creating and Editing Completeness Metrics section of the Data Profiling documentation here.
