Admins and managers may want to view charts and tables displayed in a single-page dashboard in different ways. FacilityBot has an internal customizable dashboard that uses a widget-based approach. Current charts/tables available in the “Statistics” section can be added as “widgets” to the custom dashboard. Users can then configure parameters for that chart or table such as filters.
Creating a Custom Dashboard
- Log in to FacilityBot Portal. The first thing you will see is the dashboard. FacilityBot gives you the option to view the default dashboard or create a custom one.
