Introduction

The Time Series report makes it easy to focus on a particular composite and view all time series and time series specific metrics.

Run the Report

To run the Time Series report, follow these steps:

  1. On the Reports menu, under Composite Reports, click Time Series.

    When you drill down to view accounts, you can easily distinguish single accounts from groups, because groups are shown in bold type. For composite groups, the Excluded column will show only accounts that are included in the composite and the Accounts Included column will show only accounts that are not already included in the composite.
