| Performance Indicator Categories |
To help an organisation keep track of different types of Performance indicators the Escendency system has several default indicator categories (figure 1). These can be edited or added to in the PI Category module to best relate the organisation's internal structure.

View a list of categories, and manage individual categories. Click a category to view it, or press the "Add" button to add a new category.
To delete a category, click the "delete" link next to the category. A popup message will appear asking you to confirm that you wish to delete it. Press "OK", and its status will change to "deleted".
Records are split up into pages. Click a page number link to view another page of records.
The number of your current page is highlighted in bold red text.
If there are a lot of pages, numbers will appear in a list that you can scroll along.
To change the number of records shown at a time, select a different number from the drop-down
list at the top of the page.
Checking the "Show Deleted, Suspended, Pending" checkbox will cause the list of records to include these records along with those currently open. Leaving the checkbox blank will cause the list only to show records currently open.
Click "Add" to add a new category, or click an existing category to view/edit it (figure 2).
Enter or update the category's name and status, then press the "Add" or "Update" button to save your data. Press the "Cancel" button to return to the list of records, losing any unsaved changes.
