| \n\n**Data source**\n\n | \n\nAlso called a report source, a data source is a table with filters applied to provide a single source of information for all users. For more information, see [Report sources](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/c_ReportSources.md).**Note:** If you select a data source used by existing reports, a notification prompts you to view them.\n\n |
| \n\n**Table**\n\n | \n\nThe raw data from a table with no filters applied. When you select a table, its short description appears below the table name. For trend reporting, you can also select a remote table, which aggregates, in memory, data retrieved from an external source. Then select a **Trend by** field option to aggregate its data. To learn more about remote tables, see [Retrieving external data using remote tables and scripts](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/servicenow-platform/remote-tables.md)\n\n |
| \n\n**External import**\n\n | \n\nChoose an existing imported report source, or select the Upload icon \\(\\[Omitted image \"upload-icon.png\"\\] Alt text: Upload icon\\) to import a new file. See [Create a Core UI report from an imported Microsoft Excel document](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/create-report-with-imported-data-source.md).\n\n |
| \n\n**MetricBase**\n\n | \n\nMetricBase enables you to collect, retain, analyze, and visualize custom time series data on the ServiceNow AI Platform. For more information, see [MetricBase](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/servicenow-platform/metricbase.md).\n\n |
| \n\nField\n\n | \n\nDescription\n\n |
|---|---|
| \n\nConfigure function field\n\n | \n\nConfigure fields based on calculation of multiple inputs including arithmetic functions. For more information, see [Report on function fields](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/function-fields-reporting.md). Function field results are calculated when the report is run. You can use the results for aggregations and grouping. You have to save the report before you can configure function fields.Configured function fields appear in the **Group by** and **Additional group by** lists after you save the report.\n\n |
| \n\nAggregation\n\n | \n\nComputational method for aggregating report data. The default is **Count**, which displays the number of records selected.**Note:** A single score chart displays only the aggregate value.\n\n If you select **Count Distinct**, only unique records are counted. For example, you want to generate a report with a distinct number of users who have one or more of the roles in a given list of roles. Users with more than one role would be counted twice unless you use **Count Distinct**.\n\n If you select **Average**, **Sum**, or **Count Distinct**, a list of fields from the selected **Table** appears. You may further be able to aggregate on fields from extended tables. See [How to report on extended tables.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/t_AccessFieldExtendedTable.md) Select a field to aggregate by from this list. For example, if you select a duration field, such as **Business duration** on the Incident table, the aggregated data is expressed in days, hours, and minutes.\n\n If you select an integer field, such as the **Priority** field, the data is expressed as a number. You may further be able to aggregate on fields from extended tables. See [How to report on extended tables.](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/t_AccessFieldExtendedTable.md)\n\n |
| \n\nSet Value Formatting\n\n | \n\nEnables you to configure how to show numerical values in reports, including decimal precision, rounding, minimum and maximum duration units, and abbreviations for duration units. See [Value formatting in reports](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/value-formatting-reports.md).\n\n **Note:** Decimal precision does not work on currency fields.\n\n |
| \n\nField\n\n | \n\nDescription\n\n |
|---|---|
| \n\nGeneral\n\n | |
| \n\nDisplay Zero\n\n | \n\nCheck box to display the number **0** when the value of the report is zero. Clear this check box to display an error message when the value of the cell is 0. Applicable when **Aggregation** is **Count** or **Count Distinct**.\n\n |
| \n\nDefault color\n\n | \n\nColor of the score in the chart.\n\n |
| \n\nDrilldown view\n\n | \n\nList view to show when a user selects a segment of a report for which no drilldown report type is specified. This view is also used when the user reaches the lowest drilldown level of a report. See [Configure the list layout](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/platform-administration/t_ConfigureTheListLayout.md) . If you specify a **Report drilldown**, **Drilldown view** is ignored.For more information, see [Define a report drilldown](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/c_DrillingDownWithinReports.md).\n\n |
| \n\nEdit coloring rules\n\n | \n\nClick this hyperlink to configure how values are colored in the report. You can create rules to define which colors are used based on operators and values. For example, you can specify that any value greater than 5 displays in red. See [Create coloring rules for single score reports](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/now-intelligence/reporting/single-score-report-coloring-rules.md).\n\n |
