Dashboards serve as customizable interfaces that allow users to swiftly access and analyze a diverse range of data. They can be tailored to present specific information such as contact volumes, sales metrics, or campaign effectiveness.
To initiate the creation of multiple dashboards, follow these steps:
Select the option to Add a Dashboard within the Dashboard section.
There are three main options for creating a dashboard, each represented by a rectangular card with a title, description, icon, and a "Select" button.
Create from Blank Dashboard: "Start fresh with a clean slate." This option allows the user to create an entirely new, empty dashboard without pre-existing data or configurations.
From Template Library: "Use a Readymade Template from the Library or one of yours." This option lets the user choose from pre-made templates, either from a shared library or their templates, to create a dashboard with pre-configured settings.
Clone Existing Dashboard: "Make Clone of your Existing Dashboard." This option enables the user to duplicate an existing dashboard, retaining its layout, data, and configurations.
When creating a blank dashboard, you will be prompted to designate a name for the dashboard and configure visibility permissions (e.g., view and edit permissions). Once you have configured your permissions, click the “Confirm” button to continue.
Customize the dashboard and choose pre-configured widgets based on the goals you select. You can also incorporate widgets that display various data types such as Contact Counts, Opportunity counts, and much more. Please choose the appropriate widget type and configure its settings to suit your requirements. You can also select the “Add a widget manually” option to personalize your widgets from scratch.
Click “Confirm & Add” to continue.
Arrange and adjust widgets as needed, ensuring the dashboard presents data optimally.
Use the Save Changes button to save your modifications to preserve the configured layout.
Adding and customizing dashboards with relevant widgets allows you to tailor your interface to suit your specific needs. This customization empowers you to make data-driven decisions with ease. Remember to periodically review and update your dashboard layout to ensure it continues to provide the most relevant insights for your business.
