1. A method to be executed at least in part in a computing device for using parameterized subordinate reports in a scorecard system, comprising:
- determining a plurality of report definitions associated with a scorecard element based on an attribute of the scorecard element;
determining layout features for each report definition of the plurality of report definitions;
categorizing the plurality of report definitions based on a report type and the layout features for each report definition; and
assigning selected report definitions to the scorecard element by category.

Abstract
Groups of subordinate report definitions are determined for selected scorecard metrics based on suitable report type and layout features. A list comprising the available reports is assigned to each source metric enabling association of the groups across metrics. A context of the scorecard is passed to a physical instantiation of the group of reports to affect their behavior. Report presentation, queries, and the like may be performed using the assigned definition list(s).

10. A computer-readable medium having computer executable instructions for using report definitions capable of handling heterogeneous metrics in a scorecard system, the instructions comprising:
-
determining a first group of available report definitions for a scorecard metric based on an attribute of the metric;
categorizing the first group of report definitions based on a report type and a layout feature associated with each report definition;
selecting a second group of report definitions from the first group; and
generating a list of the second group of report definitions, wherein the list is assigned to the scorecard metric. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system for assigning report definitions to scorecard elements, comprising:
-
a scorecard application configured to compute scorecard metrics and provide a scorecard presentation based on the computed scorecard metrics; and
a report definition module configured to;
determine a group of available report definitions for a scorecard element based on a type of data associated with the scorecard element;
categorize the report definitions based on a report view presentation format; and
assign the categorized report definitions to the scorecard element such that a correlation between the scorecard element and the group of report definitions is independent from a scorecard configuration. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
