Create Operations Overview Dashboards / Interactive Reports
Summary
The operations overview dashboard is a customizable, real-time, interactive report that allows users to see an overview of their most critical equipment metrics. Many customers also use this as a hub that links out to more detailed analysis when needed.
The operations overview dashboard is created within a KPI dashboard and requires the use of data groups to populate the report with data and alarm templates for color-coding. Read on to learn how to set up and customize the dashboard.
Identify Maintenance Issues with the Operations Overview Dashboard
The Operations Overview Dashboard will provide a holistic overview to help you sift through data and alerts for multiple assets, regions, and job sites.
The dashboard is updated in real-time to provide you up-to-the-minute visibility:
Equipment metrics (with the ability to sort and filter)
Equipment details and asset notes (follow this article to set up)
Colors & alarm indicators
Gateway connectivity status and last reported time
You can begin troubleshooting equipment issues from the dashboard as well:
Select an “alarm bell” to navigate to the alarm incident page

If you want to make changes to equipment details or asset notes, that can be made directly from the Overview dashboard.
