Choose the section layout, its structure. The type of item displayed depends on the layout, which is indicated:
- The first layout, 4 small boxes, for Indicators
- The second layout, 2 medium boxes, for Chart, My assigned tasks, Timeline
- The last layout, 1 big box, for Chart, Timeline, Organizational chart
Select the layout of your choice.
How to add an item
After choosing your layout, click on “+ Add an item”.
An item corresponds to a type of graph, and depending on the layout chosen the type of graph to be displayed varies:
- The first layout
Select the type of calculation among the following (Entity count, field sum, entity count evolution), the entity’s information you want to display, and finally you can add filters.
The filters will depend on the chosen entity. You can filter by date, status or according to a custom field created by a portal administrator.
Check the preview on the right to ensure you have the proper indicators.
Here's an example of a first layout graph:
- The second layout
Unlike the first layout, start by choosing the type of graph you want to display:
Chart
