Access Content > Elements, find the necessary Metric and click its Active Name Link

Open the Data tab, scroll it down and set the Omit current <Measurement Interval> from Chart to "No".

1. Open the Charting tab
2. Project partial month value: Select the "Yes" option
3. Last measurement time for this month set using: Choose a Metric that will be used to determine the last date in this period that data was collected
4. Project partial month using: The Projections can be based on either:
   • Linear Regression: Using the standard statistical calculation; no additional settings required
   • Historical Trends: Calculated using the Match data pattern setting

4.    Match data pattern from: Choose a comparison period from the dropdown menu

There are two supported methods available for computing a Partial Period Projection by deriving it using:

1. A basic “Linear Regression":  Typically employed when the Metric’s values accrue in a linear fashion through the specified Measurement Interval
2. A “Historical Trend”  based on a Daily Metric selected for as a reference for analysis

In both of the above methods, the projection uses the ‘Measurement Interval’ to determine the number of days remaining in the period as compared to the total days in the period.  The selected reference Metric is used to determine the remaining portion of the period and to set the last measurement time boundary.

For instance, in the selected Metric, the most recent ‘last measurement time’ at which a partial-period data point was obtained on 2012-01-15 07:00:00 is assumed to contain data through end-of-day 2012-01-14.  Usually, by default, the selected reference Metric has the same basic settings as the Metric for which the Partial Period Projection is being calculated.  This approach is necessary when current data is not available in the source system.
