Using the dashboard
The dashboard is a customizable, visual view into your asset inventory. The dashboard has a variety of visualization widgets that show operational information, trends, insights, goals, sources, and most and least seen graphs.
You can filter this information based on sites and time buckets based on your needs by using the dropdown buttons at the top of the dashboard and selecting the timeframe and/or site you wish to filter by.
You can also customize the arrangement and size of each widget on the dashboard to suit your particular needs, and access the widget library to add or remove widgets as desired.
Customizing the dashboard
Each of the widgets on the dashboard can be resized according to your needs by clicking and dragging the bottom right corner of the widget.
Widgets can also be rearranged within the dashboard by clicking and dragging on the widget heading area as indicated by the “cross-hair” mouse cursor icon.
Your customization settings will be saved and applied any time you visit the dashboard so that you can quickly get to the information you’d like to see.
If you wish to revert your dashboard to its default state, click the menu button at the top of the dashboard and select the “Reset dashboard” option. This will reset the visibility, arrangement, and size of all widgets to reflect the original view of the dashboard prior to customizing it.
Widget library
The dashboard widget library is used to add and remove widgets on the dashboard, and can be accessed by clicking the “Widgets” button at the top right of the dashboard.
When you open the widget library, a list of all the available widgets is presented for you to select from.
Widgets included on the dashboard will be marked with a checkmark icon. When clicked, the widget will be deselected and removed from the dashboard when you click the “Save” button.
Conversely, widgets that are not currently visible on the dashboard can be added by clicking on the widget to select it, and then saving the changes.
