Specifying Measurement Frequency
To specify the measurement frequency of an indicator:
1. See Accessing Key Indicators.
2. In the properties of a key indicator, select the Values page.
3. In the Measurement Settings section, select a steering calendar (Measurement Frequency field):
• Daily Measurement Frequency
• Monthly Measurement Frequency
• Weekly Measurement Frequency
This steering calendar is used to send notifications to appropriate users.
Managing Notifications

You can choose to send periodic notifications:
• to a specific person
By default, the owner of a key indicator receives notifications. Here you can specify another person.The notifications sent to appropriate users prompts them to enter values for the key indicator they are in charge of monitoring. For further details, see Entering Periodic Key Indicator Values.• to a set of users (when the indicator reaches a specified status or when the last measurement is older than a specified number of days).
Entering Periodic Key Indicator Values
Hopex GRC enables the indicator owner or other authorized persons to manually enter key indicator values in order to feed the key indicator.
