Classifications are items that have been organized into groups. Project Owners can create groups, for example, trademarks, manufacturer nets, time series groups, etc., in an external spreadsheet making it easy to manage. Once complete, upload to Harmoni and apply in the sections you need them

Learn more about creating classifications.

Record View and Card View

Harmoni now let's you access the underlying data. Two new flags are available, which Project Owners can use to mark project variables, making them available in Record view and Card View tables. Explorers can drill into the data and take a closer look at what's driving their findings. The information icon has been updated to include the new items making it easy users to identify them in the project tree.

Analysis

Harmoni has more options to create analyses. The analysis drop zones have been refreshed, and the analysis tables have a new look and feel. Harmoni presents new options to build your analysis with additional levels of nesting, and the flexibility to shape your table as you drag and drop.
When building a larger cross-tab, you can define the table layout before loading the data, a significant efficiency improvement.
