Log Sheet

After defining your metrics in the Metrics Inventory sheet, you will log the measurements in the log sheet. The log sheet has the following columns:

Column
Description
Example
Required

Metric ID

The unique identifier of the metric. This must match to the Metric ID defined in the Metric Inventory.

M-01

Value

The value of the measurement being reported. Do not format this column. Use decimal format for percentages.

0.8

Measurement Date

The date of the measurement.

08/31/2025

Notes

Any notes associated with the measurement.

We’ve seen a slight dip in coverage this month, primarily due to delays in onboarding new contractor workstations. A remediation plan is in place.

Recording Measurements

Once a metric has been added to the Metric Inventory Sheet, you will need to record measurements in the Log Sheet. A measurement is a single value for a metric tied to a measurement date. Metrics may have different measurement cadences: some may be measured quarterly, others weekly or even daily.

All measurements must be added to the log. To add a measurement, add the Metric ID the measurement is for, the measured value, the date of the measurement, and optionally add notes for added context.

Some things to keep in mind:

  • The Metric ID must match the ID from the Metric Inventory Sheet.

  • The value must be unformatted. Percentages should be in decimal format.
