Your Dashboard

The Dashboard is the first item in your sidebar, and the grid of tiles on it is counting your whole workspace’s records. This page covers reading that grid, rearranging it, and saving your arrangement so the rest of the workspace sees it too. About 10 minutes.

Before you start

  • Everyone in the workspace can open the Dashboard. If you cannot, someone has specifically revoked your Dashboard access — ask a workspace owner. There is no Dashboard setting in Roles to tick.
  • Only the workspace owner can save the board for everyone. Anyone can rearrange it on their own screen, but only the owner can publish that arrangement to everyone.
  • Tile sizes can only be changed on a wide enough window. The Resize control needs about 800 pixels of board width, so on a phone or a narrow browser window it is not offered.

Where it is

  • On a computer: the sidebar’s very first item, Dashboard.
  • On a phone: the first slot in the bottom tab bar, Dashboard. It is also a full-width tile in the Menu sheet.
  • An old bookmark to the /analytics address still works. It forwards to the Dashboard and keeps anything you had in the link.

The board fills the page. Tiles are not a fixed report — this grid is yours to change.

Three things that explain the rest

One board, shared by the whole workspace. There is a single saved board per workspace, not one per person. If you and a colleague are both editing it, you are editing the same thing.

Your changes are yours until you save them. Moving a tile, resizing it, adding or removing one, renaming it, changing the period or the filters — all of that changes only your screen. It becomes the workspace’s board when someone presses Save as default.

Tiles refresh themselves every 60 seconds while the tab is in front. A tab left in the background stops refreshing until you come back to it. There is no Refresh button, because there is nothing to press.

What your starting board contains

The tiles you land on depend on the industry chosen when the workspace was set up, so a neighbour’s Dashboard will not match yours.

  • Most industries start with seven tiles: a New leads stat, a Conversion funnel, Leads by source, Closed value, Needs follow-up, a Member leaderboard and Lead assignment.
  • Some real-estate setups add Closed this month on top of those seven.
  • An F&B outlet or a retail shop gets a different set entirely — Active members, Dormant — win-back list, New members and Visits trend — with no funnel, no leaderboard and no assignment table.

Tiles your workspace cannot run are dropped quietly, and nothing on the page says why. With no dropdown-style field on your database there is no Conversion funnel and no Member leaderboard; with no connected WhatsApp number there are no campaign tiles. Set the missing piece up and you can add the tile yourself.

Seeded tiles also arrive carrying their own date windows, which is why a fresh board can show the funnel over the last 90 days while the stat beside it counts this month. See Set the date range.

The row of controls above the board

On a computer this row sits in the top bar. On a phone it is the second row of the band at the top of the screen, and it folds away as you scroll.

Left to right: who the numbers are about, which lead sources count, and the date range.

ControlWhat it does
The member chip — Anyone, Me, a name, N selected or No oneNarrows the funnel, the leaderboard and the assignment table to particular people
All sources, or 1 source / N sourcesCounts only records that came from the lead sources you tick
The period pickerSets the date range for the whole board — see Set the date range
Day · Week · MonthChart granularity. It only appears when a tile on the board needs it
ResetThrows away your unsaved changes and goes back to the saved board
Save as defaultPublishes your arrangement as the workspace’s board

Reset and Save as default only exist while you have unsaved changes. If you cannot see them, there is nothing to save. On a narrow screen they shrink to icons with no text.

Two things about these controls surprise people:

  • Only three tiles listen to the member chip — the funnel, the leaderboard and the assignment table. Stat tiles and tiles you build yourself cannot be narrowed to one person.
  • In the member chip, Clear means “back to just me” — not “everyone”. To get the whole workspace back, open the chip and press Select all; the chip then reads Anyone.

Open the member chip and you get a panel headed Filter by owner, with Select all, Clear, and a Search owner box. Your own row is marked (You) and sits first. The member chip is a personal lens: it is never saved with the board, and it resets every time the page loads.

Reading a stat tile

Green is up, red is down. The percentage compares with the window immediately before this one.

  • Big numbers are shortened — 1.23K, 4.5M, 1.2B.
  • The percentage compares with the window immediately before. On Today that is yesterday; on Last 30 days it is the 30 days before those. There is no percentage on All time, and none when the previous total was zero.
  • Green means the number went up, red means it went down, grey means no change.
  • A tile one column wide and one row tall has no trend line — there is no room for it. Make the tile wider or taller and the line appears.

Rearrange the board

Click a tile to select it

Hovering a tile does nothing on its own. Click the tile — it picks up a coloured ring, and the small toolbar appears over its top-left corner while your pointer is on it. On a touch screen the toolbar shows as soon as the tile is selected. Click the page background to let go.

Move it

Drag the grip — the first button in the toolbar, Drag to move — to a new place in the grid. If you would rather not drag, click the grip once and use the arrow keys: ← or ↑ moves the tile one place earlier, → or ↓ one place later.

Resize it

Click Resize in the toolbar. A small grid opens; hover a cell to preview the size and click to apply it. The label under the grid counts rows first, then columns, so 3×2 is three rows tall and two columns wide.

Charts go up to six rows. Stat tiles stop at two rows, because there is nothing for the extra height to show.

Animation

Click first, then hover: the toolbar only appears on a selected tile.

If a seeded chart looks like a title strip with a sliver of chart under it, this is the fix — give it three rows or more and save.

Remove one you never look at

Click Remove in the toolbar, at the right-hand end. The tile leaves your copy of the board straight away. It is only gone for everyone once the board is saved, so a removal you regret is undone by Reset.

Save it for the workspace

Press Save as default. A toast reads Saved as the workspace default, and Reset and Save as default disappear because there is nothing left unsaved.

These two buttons only appear once you have changed something.

If you are not the workspace owner, Save as default still appears — pressing it returns You don’t have permission to change the shared board. Your arrangement stays on your screen; ask the workspace owner to make it the default. Note that this is workspace ownership, not an Admin role: a member holding an Admin role gets the same refusal.

When two people edit at once

The board re-checks the shared copy every time you come back to the tab.

  • If someone else saved and you have nothing unsaved, your board quietly becomes theirs.
  • If someone else saved and you do have unsaved changes, nothing moves. Reset relabels itself to Board updated. Pressing it throws your changes away and loads theirs; pressing Save as default instead publishes yours over theirs.

Reset always means “back to the last saved board”. It also clears the member chip and puts every tile back on its own date range.
