Calculated Metrics for Cohort Analysis

Hi,

It'd be really useful if calculated metrics could be used for cohort analysis.When I try to drag a calculated metric into the field it remains grey, so I'm guessing this is something that's not currently supported.

Thanks

Hi Alex,

Cohort analysis supports a set of inclusion and return metrics which group users in some way. What I see is even not all standard metrics are supported. So this may be due to design. 

Thanks,

Hi,

Do you know if the intention is to add more standard metrics into cohort analysis?

Thanks

Well at this point of time I cannot say for sure. It would be a great idea to raise this request to the Product Management on Ideas Exchange - http://www.ideas.omniture.com 

Thanks!

I couldn't find if this had actually been submitted as an idea, so I did so. If you're reading this thread, then it's probably worth the 10 seconds to click over and vote for it: Calculated Metrics in Cohort Tables in Analysis Workspace (I'm assuming the moderator will approve the idea fairly quickly).
