Does anyone know if a metric's variance is stored in the PMF database tables or is this a calculated field? Which table and field?

I searched the obvious tables but could not find variance.

We need to customize a couple of gadgets to add variance.

Ideally variance would be an option in the analysis designer (hint -- new feature? Wink , which would make adding variance to a gadget real easy.

Variance is calculated. There are utility programs in PMF to calculate variances for current V. previous and current V. prior. You can write a custom proc and INCLUDE these to get variance.

PMF eventually will make variance available in Analysis Designer however note that showing it requires use of a point-to-point comparison - 2 points in TIME most typically. So it would only work if you selected two points. Makes sense if you think about it, right?
