How is Cumulative Impact calculated for Report Manager?



We can describe cumulative as follows:

  1. First, average impact is determined.  It is the average impact value for a notification over it's lifetime from OPEN to CLOSED.
  2. Next, the cumulative impact is the about value multiplied by the duration of the notification.
  3. If the notification is not cleared, average impact is average from the ACTIVE status to current time, and duration is the time of ACTIVE to current time (reporting time).
