Portfolio Cost by Overall Health Portlet

The Portfolio Cost by Overall Health portlet is a bubble graph that displays how the planned cost of the portfolio investments balances between the portfolio overall health and target total cost. Each bubble on the graph represents a portfolio and the size of the bubble is determined by the planned cost of the portfolio investments. The portlet filters include: Portfolio (multi-select), OBS Unit, Portfolio Plan Type, Managers (multi-select), Stakeholders (multi-select), Above Waterline, and Active. By default, the Portfolio Plan Type filter is set to Portfolio. This means that the amounts displayed in the portlet are the portfolio amounts as of the last sync. If you set the Portfolio Plan Type filter to Plan of Record, then the amounts are based on the portfolio plan marked as the plan of record. You must have a plan of record on the portfolio for it to appear in the portlet if you select this filter option.

To access this portlet, open Home, and from Portfolio Management, select Portfolio Dashboard and click the Cost and Health tab.

The following describes the portlet:

Bubble Graph

You can click a bubble to open the waterlines page of the portfolio. You can also mouse over a bubble in the graph to display details of each portfolio. The details include the name of the portfolio, target total cost, overall health score, and planned cost. The graph legend indicates the portfolio name. Click a legend entry to exclude a portfolio from the graph.

X-axis and Y-axis

Values for overall health display on the Y-axis, with a zoned background color on the graph. Values for target total cost display on the X-axis.
