Creating List Subject Areas and Setting Responsibilities for Analytics KPIs


You may want to create a KPI in Siebel Analytics that is derived from a subject area that you do not see when you navigate to the KPI Analytics Request Administration screen. To create KPIs in Siebel Analytics, you need subject areas included in the List Format screen. These subject areas are different than subject areas typically included in the Siebel Answers screen. However, list format subject areas can be created based on an existing Siebel Answers subject area.
