Creating a Custom Dashboard

Users can create their own custom dashboards. Custom dashboards appear under Dashboards > My Dashboards in the application menu, and are also visible on the Dashboard Overview page.You can choose from the following dashboard types:

Dashboard: This type of dashboard allows you to create different types of charts pertaining to up to three datasets. For more information about charts, see Charts.
Pivot Table Dashboard: This type of dashboard allows you to choose from only two types of charts: pivot tables and pivot table rows. Pivot table dashboards only allow you to create one chart for the entire dashboard.
List: This type of dashboard presents complete search results for one dataset only. The search results option allows you to switch between search results and a dashboard. Upon opening the search results dashboard, the application will show the search results first by default. In the dashboard view you can create charts as you would for a standard dashboard.
