Keep in mind that you may see more Local Parameters in NZ Analytics than what is listed above; this is because NZ Analytics includes all Local Parameters configured in each individual Institution Zone, in addition to those configured for the Network Zone. It can be helpful to add the Institution Code column to your Analytics report in order to see which Local Parameter is associated with which Institution Zone.
