Overview

An indicator is an object that defines the display settings, image types, and links for the measures that appear in a dashboard.
A dashboard can contain one or more indicators. SAS BI Dashboard provides more than 25 types of indicators that you can use. You can select and customize each indicator so that it displays its data in the way that makes the most sense for your organization. Each indicator type has its own display settings. The way an indicator displays its data can vary greatly depending on how you customize the display settings.
