Set up values and tasks for Sustainability Program metrics
From Sustainability Program, you can now select the specific values a metric collects — based on collection period and any custom dimension — and create tasks to collect the values and their supporting material.
Tip: You can now apply an aggregation — such as a Sum or Average — to a column, such as for at-a-glance analysis of collected values.
To help streamline data collection, you can also include multiple values within the same task, if collected through the Workiva Tasks portal instead of a connected source file.
Tip: To reduce the number of tasks already created for a metric, you can combine Not sent tasks to consolidate their values — if collected through the Workiva Tasks portal — into a new task.
To learn more, view Configure values for Sustainability Program metrics and Manage metric tasks in Sustainability Program.
Note: Previously, metrics automatically created values based on its collection frequency and dimension, with a separate task for each value.
Reset view of metric Values or Tasks
From Sustainability Program, you can pin, hide, and sort columns of a metric's Values or Tasks, such as to focus on or prioritize specific details. To return the columns to their default settings, you can now click Reset view. To learn more, view Manage metric values in Sustainability Program.
