Creating Custom Dashboards

Modified on Tue, 13 May at 1:50 PM

Tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) is essential for staying on top of your business goals. With custom dashboards, you can visualize your data in one place and share insights across your team.


Custom dashboards help you monitor your team’s KPIs in one place, enabling smarter decisions and better visibility across departments. Here's how to build and customize your own dashboard from scratch.



 Step 1: Access the Dashboard Section

In the main left-side menu, click Dashboards.

You’ll see three options:

  • Create a new dashboard from scratch

  • Choose existing template from the library

  • Clone existing dashboard






 For this guide, we’ll create a new dashboard from scratch.

Click Add Dashboard, give it a name, and set access permissions for team members as needed.


 Step 2: Start Building with Widgets

Widgets are the reporting sections on your dashboard.

You can either:

  1. Choose from the system’s pre-defined widgets
