This allows multiple versions of the same Metric to be linked to different Scorecards. #### **Step 1: Create a Cascading Metric** 1. **Identify the Metric** that needs to be linked to another Scorecard. 2. **Create a new Parent Metric** and assign ownership to the team member responsible for the Scorecard where you want the Metric to appear. - Example: - The existing Metric **“Total MRR”** is owned by **Alan** and linked to his **CEO Scorecard**. - You want **“Total MRR”** to also appear in the **Finance Function**, owned by **Ian Cruz**. - Create a new Parent Metric named **“Total MRR”**, assign ownership to **Ian Cruz**, and link it to his **Finance Scorecard**. 3. Ensure the new Parent Metric has **no data within it** and matches the original Metric type (**Count, Measurement, or Flat**). #### **Step 2: Link the Cascading Metrics** 1. Navigate to the **original Metric** (child Metric). 2. Go to the **Parent Section** dropdown. 3. Select the **newly created Parent Metric** to establish the cascading relationship. #### **Step 3: Add the Metric to the KFFM** 1. Go to the **KFFM** page and click **Edit** in the upper right corner. 2. Locate the Function where you want to add the Metric and click the **pencil icon**. 3. In the **Edit Function** window, find the Metric under the linked Scorecard list. 4. Select the Metric and click **Save** to apply the changes. #### **Important Notes:** - Only **one team member** should edit the KFFM at a time to prevent data loss. - **Admins** should manage edits to avoid conflicting updates. -
