# Score Card

The score card, or sometimes called KPI indicator, iis primarily used to display metrics that represent performance indicators. This visualization element typically highlights crucial data points that help in understanding business's overall performance or specific business aspects. It can be designed to show not just the current value of a metric but also its change or trend over a specified period.

Regarding data sourcing, the scorecard is capable of utilizing a [**Metric**](/app-builder/app-construction/metric.md) or [**Query**](/app-builder/app-construction/query.md), and while it also supports a **Table**, this is not recommended. This is because it displays the value of the first row from the selected column, as specified by the "Display Column" setting. Primarily, aggregation occurs within a **Metric** or **Query**, and the scorecard displays this aggregated value. This approach ensures a focused and clear presentation of the most pertinent data.
