What is the Dashboard?
The Dashboard consists of information cards (also referred to as To-do's) and charts.
To-do's display the status of entities and the number of records for each status.
Charts display trends and analyses using:
- Line charts
- Bar charts
- Pie charts
- Gauge charts
Each card includes filters such as status, date, crew, shift, or coordinator group. As a result, the information displayed may differ from one employee to another.
