Dashboard View

A dashboard lets you assemble one or more charts in the same place.

This can be a useful way to present schedule information that accommodates multiple parameters and reporting properties (revenue over time, revenue by destination, ore tons by remaining mined volume, and so on).

A Dashboard view can contain as many charts as you want (referred to as "dashboard items"), with each chart being fully (and independently) configurable using the Dashboard Report and Chart Designer screens. You can even add multiple charts to the same dashboard item, which can be useful for comparing related data.
