Build a simple calculated metric

Start to build a metric, as described in Build metrics.

Name the metric Page Views per Session or something similar.

Give the metric a user-friendly Description to show what the metric is used for.

Select the right Format. For this example, choose Decimal.

Decide how many decimal places you want the report to show.

In the Show updward trend as drop-down menu, select ▲ Good (Green).

Add a Tag to organize your metrics.

For this calculated metric, first drag Page Views from the Metrics components into the Definition section of the canvas.

Then drag Sessions from the Metrics components and drop the metric underneath Page Views (wait until the blue line appears before you drop the metric).

Select the divide operator. (Divide is the default operator.)

You can see a Preview of the metric while you are building the metric.

Product compatibility shows if the calculated metric is compatible everywhere in Customer Journey Analytics (excluding experimentation).

Select Save.

Notice that the Summary formula updates anytime you make a change to the metric definition.

(Optional) To share, approve, (re-)tag, rename, or delete a metric, you can go to the Calculated metrics manager.
