Creating a Dashboard
Users with Admin permission can create and edit interactive Dashboards in Orbit, configuring visualisations to suit desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile devices.
To create or edit a Dashboard you must use a screen with resolution greater than 1280px
To create meaningful views of your data, you should consider the following:
- Who is the intended user of the information?
- Why do they need the information?
- How do they want or need to access the data?
- What types of visualisation are most effective to communicate the required information?
The name you allocate to a Dashboard is the user’s immediate means of understanding its purpose and scope; clear definition will also help you to build an effective data display.
You can copy an existing dashboard using the duplicate button.
A Function drop-down automatically presents with any available options listed – in this case Count.
You are presented with Visualisation options according to the visualisation type. You must complete all required fields before you can Apply the settings
