Asset Dashboards

The Dashboards tab on the ASSETS screen shows you the output of any of the pre-configured report templates in the database that has been marked as an asset dashboard.

Prerequisites

To make report templates available as asset dashboards, the following configurations must have been done:

  • A report template must exist under Configuration ‣ Reports and Dashboards ‣ Templates. For more information, see Configure Report Templates.

  • The report template must have been set as an asset dashboard in your configuration settings under Configuration ‣ Reports and Dashboards ‣ Templates. For more information, see Set a Report Template as a Dashboard.

    Note

    For the asset dashboard report, choose a report template that requires an asset as a report parameter.

Using the Dashboard

To choose which dashboard template is shown, click the Dashboard toolbar button, and select the required template from the drop-down list. Templates are grouped by the report categories as per your configuration settings (Configure Reports and Dashboards).

As compared to the DASHBOARDS screen, on the Dashboard tab of the ASSETS screen, the dashboard report recognises what asset is currently selected in the asset tree and updates the contents of the dashboard report based on the selected asset.

Asset dashboards work in the same way as the generic dashboard on the DASHBOARDS screen. For more information about the dashboard functionality, see Dashboards.
