Applies To:    Enterprise    Plus    Basic

Overview

Dashboard is a view of key information and statistics most commonly used for quick reference purposes.

  • The Dashboard menu selection displays in the upper left hand corner next to the other menu options.
  • Dashboard is the default view when a user first logs in.
  • Dashboard topics can be enabled and disabled based on user permissions the same as menu options.
  • Note that graphs require Adobe Flash to be installed.  Without Adobe Flash, graphs will not display.
  • Use the Report Menu when more detail is required than the Dashboard provides.
  • Charts and graphs that display dates are in yyyy/mm/dd format intentionally to allow dates to sort in proper order.

Setting Dashboard Permissions

The display of all dashboard topics except News and Information is controlled by the Admin Menu >> Settings >> Permission Groups or Admin Menu >> Settings >> Users sections.  Use the same process of setting permission for Dashboard topics.

  • Note that the News and Information will always display for all users and cannot be disabled.
