See [Performance Analytics indicators](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/now-intelligence/c_Indicators.md).\n-   **Custom Script**: Allows you to write a script that collects data from another application. Beneath the **Data Source** field, a sample script appears. Customize the script as needed. An example custom script is:\n\n    ```\nvar results = {};\n var applications = [];\n var incidentCount = 0;\n \n var applicationsGr = new GlideRecord(\"cmdb_ci_business_app\");\n applicationsGr.addQuery('active', true);\n applicationsGr.query();\n //for each application get incident count at business service level\n while(applicationsGr.next()) {\n    incidentCount = 0;\n    \n    var gr = new GlideRecord(\"incident\");\n    gr.addEncodedQuery(\"opened_atBETWEEN\"  + startDate  + \"@\" +   endDate);\n    gr.addQuery('cmdb_ci_business_app', applicationsGr.getUniqueValue());   \n    gr.query();\n    \n    incidentCount = gr.getRowCount();\n    var appInfo = {};\n    appInfo.appId = applicationsGr.getUniqueValue();\n    appInfo.weight = incidentCount;\n    applications.push(appInfo);\n    }\n results.applications = applications;\n results;\n\n    ```\n\n-   **Query Condition**: Allows you to select a table to run filters on to obtain data.\n-   **Assessments**: Allows you to evaluate, score, and rank records by assessing records in a table.\n-   **Indicators**: Allows you to add dependent child indicators. Through the child indicators, data is gathered to the parent indicator.\n\nFor example, if the parent indicator is number of issues, the dependent indicators can be number of incident counts, number of problems, and changes. These dependent indicators are child indicators and the number of incidents, problems, and changes recorded are consolidated up to the parent indicator as the number of issues.\n\n\n</td></tr><tr><td>\n\nIndicator\n\n</td><td>\n\nThe **Indicator** field appears when **Performance Analytics** is selected from the **Data source** list.Indicators are statistics that are used to measure current conditions and forecast trends.\n\n **Note:** If the collection frequency of the application indicator isn’t greater than the frequency at which the data of the Performance Analytic indicator are generated, then the system displays an error message: `Frequency of the indicator must always be greater than or equal to the frequency of the datasource configuration indicator`.\n\n</td></tr><tr><td>\n\nDefault breakdown\n\n</td><td>\n\nName of the Performance Analytics breakdown.\n\n</td></tr><tr><td>\n\nNormalized script\n\n</td><td>\n\nA script to evaluate and score business applications and capabilities using standardized metrics. It involves using indicators that provide a normalized score for the condition they are evaluating. These indicators can be based on assessments, query conditions, custom scripts, or performance analytics.\n\n</td></tr></tbody>\n</table>|Field|Description|\n|-----|-----------|\n|Click through URL navigation type|Select whether to view the application or capability indicator details in a new window, in the same window, or in a dialog box.|\n|Click through URL script|The script associated with an indicator that allows users to select a URL and view the indicator data in a related application or dashboard.
