FedEx

Description (Required):

Ability to set default formatting for measures that apply across all OAC DV (when using subject area as data source). Currently, measure format changes are limited to a single visualization. This capability exists in Answers/Classic interface (see image), but the default formatting changes in Classic do not carryover to OAC DV.

Use Case and Business Need (Required):

Ability for all users to see consistent default formatting of a measure across the product.

    This is much needed "ease of use" functionality and a true gap between Answers and DV. We have an RPD with over 11K metrics/dimensions, and we use the default formatting extensively on the metrics (and some dimensions) in our RPD. This streamlines development and ensures proper formatting is consistently used across our organization for reporting on our metrics. It has always worked great for our Answers dashboards, but we waste a lot of time reformatting metrics that we pull in each time we create a new DV report. It's a major headache to our report developers.

    We need to ensure this integrates cleanly across all tools. DV is a great tool, but we need to close out some outstanding feature gaps that are still lacking years into its launch.
