 The granularity can be set using the `time_granularity` parameter on the metric, and defaults to `day`. If day is not available because the dimension is defined at a coarser granularity, it will default to the defined granularity for the dimension.
 
 ### Example
-You have a semantic model called `orders` with a time dimension called `order_time`. You want the `orders` metric to roll up to `monthly` by default; however, you want the option to look at these metrics hourly. You can set the `time_granularity` parameter on the `order_time` dimension to `hour`, and then set the `time_granularity` parameter in the metric to `month`.

+Remember that metrics can be defined in the same YAML files as your semantic models but must be defined as a separate top-level section and not nested within the `semantic_models` key. Or you can define metrics in their dedicated separate YAML files located in any subdirectories within the same dbt project repository.
