Dashboard Settings

This page appears when the icon is clicked in the Monitor module. This page allows the user to customize the dashboard according to his/her preferences.

To customize the dashboard, do the following:

• From the Default Tab drop-down list, select the default tab that needs to appear upon entering the Monitor module.
• If you wish to enable/disable any of the dashboards in the Monitor module, select/deselect the required dashboards from the Enable/Disable Tab field.
• If you wish to show dial charts for the measures of your choice in the dashboard, select Yes option against the Show Dial field.
• To enable administrators to instantly and accurately detect deviations from the norm, the dial charts, by default, indicate the threshold settings of a measure along with the real-time values reported by that measure. If multi-level thresholds are set for a measure, then each such threshold will be indicated using the conventional color-codes (Red for Critical, Orange for Major, and Pink for Minor) used across the eG monitoring and reporting consoles. By default, the dial charts display the Maximum thresholds alone. If a measure is associated with Minimum thresholds only, then the dial chart will display the minimum thresholds settings instead. Thanks to the threshold representations in the dial charts, administrators can easily identify when and what type of thresholds were violated.

  If need be, you can ensure that these dial charts indicate the actual measure values alone, and not the threshold values in the dashboard. For this purpose, set the Show Threshold in Dial Chart flag to No.

• To view the measure graphs of your choice in the dashboard, select the graph from the Default timeline for list.
• Set the timeline for the selected graph by picking an option from the Timeline list.
• Select a dashboard from the Module list for which measures need to be configured.
• Select an option from the Sub-System list where the new measure(s) is to be displayed in the dashboard.
• To add measures for say, dial graph, pick the Dial Graph option from the Add/Delete Measures for list. Upon selection of the Dial Graph option, the pre-configured measures for the dial graph will appear in the Existing Value(s) list. Similarly, to add a measure to the digital display, pick the Digital Graph option from the Add/Delete Measures for list. In this case, the Existing Value(s) list box will display all those measures for which digital displays pre-exist.
• Next, select the Test that reports the said measure, pick the measure of interest from the Measures list, provide a Display name for the measure, and click the Add button to add the chosen measure to the Existing Value(s) list. Note that while configuring measures for a dial graph the ‘Measures’ list will display only those measures that report percentage values.
• If you want to delete one/more measures from the dial/digital graphs, then, as soon as you choose the Dial Graph or Digital Graph option from the Add/Delete Measures for list, pick any of the displayed measures from the Existing Value(s) list, and click the Delete button.
• Finally, click the Update button to register the changes.
