## Getting Started

There are three different types of KPI Report available in Yellowfin:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| **Spot** | Basic KPI Report that allows you to set up a KPI without displaying any additional information, other than the value itself. |
| **Categorical** | KPI Report that splits what's displayed on the tab into categories when viewed as a report. This allows you to display break up the value into categories for further examination. |
| **Time** | KPI Report that allows you to show a trend according to time series data, rather than real-time trends. It also allows you to show more detail in the report (like a Categorical KPI). |

You will need to create at least one of these before attempting this tutorial.
