What is the dashboard?

The dashboard is a powerful tool that allows users to utilize an advanced data analytics engine to visualize and trill into ProTrack's labor management data.  The Business Intelligence (BI Pro) tool requires no technical knowledge to create data visualizations which can be easily filtered and explored.  By default, there are several included dashboards which cover many of the most common labor management KPIs.  Users can duplicate, extend, and customize these dashboards to cover additional reporting needs.  Additional dashboards can also be created from scratch as dictated by business needs.

Accessing the Dashboard

  1. Log into ProTrack Warehouse.
  2. From the top menu, select Reports → Dashboard

Dashboard Features


Analytics

The Analytics tab contains all of the Dashboards that have been created by, or shared with, the logged in user.  Choosing a dashboard from the left-hand menu loads the dashboard in the middle pane.  The right panel contains a list of filters that can be applied to all widgets on the currently selected dashboard to see data for a specific date range, set of facilities, group of employees, etc.


Dashboards

By default, several dashboards have been created with most of the commonly used labor management KPIs in mind.

Pulse

What is Pulse?

Your pulse is a centralized location where you can stay on top of your most important KPIs across multiple dashboards, and manage your data alerts.

You can consolidate and monitor important aspects of your business by adding important values from various dashboards to the Pulse page.

Image AddedImage Added

Alerting can be set for each widget individually as they are added to pulse.  There are three ways this alerting can be set up:

  • Threshold – Once a value rises above/falls below a certain number, an Alert will be generated
  • Automatic – Pulse will automatically check for variations from the normal, and send an Alert when an abnormal value is detected.
  • Always – An Alert will be generated each time the cube rebuilds, regardless if there is a change in your data or not.

The Advanced button allows you to customize the filters on the Pulse, and where Alerts will be sent when they are generated.


Notification

Clicking on Image Added will show the notifications.  Alerts generated by Pulse widgets will appear here.
