Main Screen and Its Components

Figure: Dashboard Module

• Dashboard Selector - contains a list of pre-defined dashboards. By choosing a definite dashboard from this list, you can view the reports stored in the selected dashboard.

• Customize - allows performing the following operations:

- Name - displays the dashboard name.

- Save - saves a dashboard so that it can be shared with other users.

- Save as New - saves a dashboard as a new one. This option is especially useful if you need to make modifications in a definite dashboard while keeping the source information intact. This way overwriting of the original dashboard is prevented.

- Public - makes the dashboard available to other users as well if selected.

- Scroll Mode - toggles the scrollbar thus allowing additional space for adding reports to the dashboard.

- Remove - deletes a dashboard together with its contents.

- Cancel - discards the modifications made to the dashboard currently displayed on the screen.

• Update all - loads the latest data from the database.

• New - creates a new dashboard.

• Add New Item - adds a new report under the definite dashboard from the list of all pre-defined reports previously created.

• Dashboard Workspace - the main screen of the Dashboard module where the content of a definite dashboard is viewed.
