You can build these reports using the design settings in the table below. Alternatively, you can download this single Active Projects tile report definition or download this multiple Key Financials tile report definition and upload to your PPM Pro instance.

Design View	Selection	Comments
General	Topic: Project Type: Tile Title: <enter a meaningful title>	You can create a Tile report for any entity by changing the Topic, for example to portfolio, task, project log, and so on. This example is for project numeric fields.
Data	List Fields: Whichever of the following and other numeric fields would be of value, for example standard, user-defined, or calculated numeric fields such as: Count Total Actual Cost Budget Cost Actual Revenue Actual Hours % Complete	To change the field title/heading value Display Name and Display Data As options, you can use the Field Options modal.
Display	Configure desired options within the Display tab, such as Headings, Data, Drilldown, and Aggregation. Select the field name/Heading position (top or bottom) For both Heading and Data, select fonts, styles, sizes, and colors Optional set up drilldowns to reports or data for each field Be sure to set the Aggregation for each field, else the report results will be empty. Aggregate based on Sum, Average, Minimum, or Maximum. For example, most aggregation will likely be Sum to total the values, but for fields such as % Complete, another aggregation method such as Average would make more sense.	Note that if you want to have different fonts, styles, sizes, and colors per selected field, you will need to create a Tile report per field; fields within the same Tile report will use the same Display options.
Variable Settings	Scope: Portfolio Filters: optionally include project filters NOTE: If you have multiple fields within a single tile report and you need to set individual field-level filters, in the Data tab next to each field in the Tile Fields list, click the gear icon to edit settings for the field and add an appropriate filter:	Selecting the Portfolio Scope will cause this report to be available on Organization Report or Portfolio Report grids and subsequently can be added to relevant Dashboards. You can select other Scope options if you want this report to be shown in other entity grids as well, such as Organization to run across all projects. As needed, you can also include Filters. If you want to allow the user to change to a different Scope and/or Filter before running the report or when viewing the report, select the relevant checkboxes for Allow changing.
