Managing dashboards

Updating dashboards

If you want to update a created dashboard, you can do so by clicking the "Manage" button. A new window will appear where you can see the currently selected objects in the dashboard and select new ones.




Date range

The created dashboard can be adjusted to match the date range. You can select a required period from the calendar by selecting the desired date range granularity (Day, Week, Month, Year). The calendar will show the dates based on the selected range granularity.

Editing the dashboard

You can edit the dashboard by adding or removing the object. You can also drag and drop the dashboard blocks to change the layout. As for each block, you can:

  • Change the chart type. This changes how the chart type is displayed in the dashboard. Remember that it does not affect how the chart is displayed in the source report.
  • Refresh data. Refreshes the specific report with the latest data.
  • Delete. Deletes the report from the dashboard. Remember that it does not remove the source report from the project - just from the dashboard.


Resizing the layout

You can change the layout of the dashboard by dragging and dropping the individual elements at the top right corner of the objects. Dashboards can also be resized horizontally and vertically.
