3.9. Setting Thresholds
As you examine data in the report, you might decide that you want
certain data categories to stand out, especially if the values are out of an
expected performance range. For example, maybe you’d like the Service
Level column in a report to turn red when the service level drops too

highlights areas that were out of an expected performance range over a
period of time.
À To set thresholds in the real-time graph:
