Dashboards
The Dashboard provides real-time reporting using tables, charts, and graphs. The Dashboard displays any number of individual dashboard controls that allow you to understand your data at a glance. From here you can pinpoint outliers, identify gaps, and dive deeper into the data.
Dashboard data
The first time you log into the system, you will see the defaulted dashboard controls based on your security role.
Dashboards display data in the following formats:
- Maps: Plot coordinates to clearly understand where assets are located.
- Lists and tables: Review customized tabular data sets.
- Charts: Compare trends using graphical representations.
- Calendar: Visualize notifications with a weekly, monthly, or agenda view.
Hover over the name of the control to easily view each control’s filters, including the date range selected. Select the Configure option in the action menu to adjust the control’s filters.
