Overview
The Custom Dashboard Builder allows users to create personalized dashboards to monitor financial and operational metrics within the Ordway Analytics module.
Previously, dashboard customization required assistance from internal teams to configure or modify views. With the Custom Dashboard Builder, you can independently create dashboards using a self-service, drag-and-drop interface.
You can:
- Add widgets and visualizations
- Configure charts and tables
- Apply global filters
- Rearrange dashboard layouts
- Share dashboards with other users
This enables teams to design dashboards tailored to their business needs while maintaining control over permissions and visibility.
The Custom Dashboard Builder is available only within the Analytics module and is currently supported on desktop browsers only.
