BSI - Metric calculating average of other metric results

[Anon Anon]

I need to create a metric whose result will be the average of outputs from four other metrics.

Rather than repeating Business Calculations of the metrics whose outputs I need to average, is there a way to access outputs of those metrics in new business logic?

What would be a recommended  method to implement this metric?

Hello Walter,

you can use tools.sendevent method to send metrics' results to a new EventType, and use this new eventType as registration in a new Metric/Business Logic.

I created a step by  step document that shows how to do that.

I hope it will help you with your problem

Thanks Thomas,

This certainly looks like just the information I need to implement a metric which averages results of other metrics.

I was hoping for a simpler method but it looks like what you presented is how I will implement it.
