Use the Level Advanced Options dialog to select advanced options for defining level metrics.

Open the Metric Function Editor.
Select a function and click Show All to display the Level area.
Click Level Advanced Options.
Select one of the following options:
- Allow other users to add extra units to this definition: Determine whether the metric accepts dimensionality units. This option is applied to metrics used at the template level and metrics used in the filter for a metric qualification. The dimensionality is merged with the original units to complete the metric level. This option is selected by default.
- Include filter attributes which are not in report or level in metric calculation: Determine whether to apply the metric filter when the metric is calculated. If this option is cleared, filter attributes that are not on the report or in the level of the metric are not included in the metric calculation. This options lets you determine which parts of the metric filter are applied based on the data that has been included on the report. This option can help you reuse the same metric in multiple reports, eliminating the need to create and maintain multiple metrics, particularly if the metric and filter qualifications are complex.
