Measures

Use the Measures page to add global and account measures. A measure is used to analyze performance. Measures are used in workbooks.

Global measures are not related to accounts. Account measures are related to accounts and are currency values only. You can associate a general ledger code to account measures. Account measures are specified together with the currency for the account.
