Metric Name Description
Number of records Displays the number of records in the underlying data set that have the combination of dimension values for the current row.

For example, a table is aggregated using the dimensions Country and Product Line. The current row has United States for the country and Apparel for the product line.

The number of matching records is the number of records that have the value United States for Country and Apparel for Product Line.

In the table, the default column heading is Record Count.

Number of records with values Displays the number of records that have a value (any value other than NULL) for a selected attribute for the combination of dimension values for the current row.

When you add this metric, you are prompted to select the attribute to use.

For example, a table is aggregated using Country and Product Line. The current row has United States for the country and Apparel for the Product line. Of the 15 records with United States as the Country and Apparel as the product line, 4 records have Color set to Blue, 3 have Color set to Green, and 8 have no value for Color.

The number of records with values for the Color attribute is then 7.

Of the 15 records with United States as the Country and Apparel for the product line, 4 records have Color set to Blue, 3 have Color set to Green, and 8 have no value for Color.

The number of unique values for Color is then 2. In the table, the default column heading is attributeName (Value Count).
