The dashboard view at user level gives a summary across all of the programmes and projects you have access to as well as your timesheets, and any leave applications.
There are dashboards also available at the portfolio view page, programme view page, project view page and more, which can be customised to provide summaries of a number of areas within the chosen level i.e. financial summary, open risks etc.
The dashboard consists of a number of sections called dashlets. Each section can be closed (or hidden) by clicking on the “Close” icon in the top left-hand corner of the chosen dashlet. To edit the information that the dashlet itself shows, click on the “Edit” icon in the top right corner of the chosen dashlet. This is shown in Figure 1.
There are two views for the dashboard page. The basic view (shown in Figure 2) and the layout view (shown in Figure 3).
