1.015.1.1This is the first version of Admin.XMLMetricsConfiguration.xml.

Introduction

To access this configuration file in Organize Space, select the Settings tab, then the XML Settings subtab, and then the Metrics subsubtab.

This configuration file contains:
  • An estimate of average number of hours spent per object
  • An estimate of the average hourly salary per employee

Tridion Docsships with a configuration file that sets out-of-the-box values for these settings. These are merely sample values, and you should modify them to values that apply to your organization.

The Metrics feature requires both of these estimates in order to produce its ROI (return on investment) charts.
