A dashboard is a one-page long, interactive, special type of document. It gives a more flexible way of presenting data, as each user is capable of changing their dashboard view based on their permissions. It uses the same components as documents, and in the next chapter, we will learn about layering data, selectors, and widgets in detail.
This chapter is intended to provide you with the basic steps for dashboard creation.
To create a dashboard do the following:
- Click Create | New Dashboard
- Select a document dataset, which could either be a report, intelligent cube, or any other external source data:
- From the Data menu, select Add data set
- Browse and select the data source and click OK
- Add controls or objects to the dashboard as needed
- After we have entered all the required information, click the Save icon and give the dashboard a name.
