APPOINTMENT VERSION: Single & Multiple
The dashboard is a snapshot display of your appointments, sales, and other useful tools. Setup your dashboard by selecting from a list of widgets you would like displayed. You can further customize your experience by dragging each widget into the desired location of your dashboard. Each widget location will be saved to your login profile and appear in the same location each time you log in.
By using the dashboard, you will save valuable time by having customizable statistics and data at your fingertips in one location. You can quickly modify any widget display by filter options to include/exclude staff members, locations, or services. With the widgets available to you, view different sets of statistics on one page that would normally take multiple sets of reports to run. The dashboard is also the only place you can see your data in up-to-date graphs.
NOTE: The Dashboard is only available to Headquarter Administrators users, and displayed in the headquarters (HQ) location within your account.
Accessing the Dashboard
To access the Dashboard, click the Dashboard link at the top of your account.
Adding & Removing Widgets
To customzie your Dashboard by adding/removing widgets, click on the "Add/Rmove Widget" button at the top of your Dashboard.
Review the list of widgets you would like to add/remove. Select the "Add Widget" or "Remove Widget" button next to the widget you would like to add/remove. After making a selection, you will be directed to the Dashboard to view your changes.
Working with Widgets

-
Maximize
If your widget is minimized and you need to maximize it, click the (+) located in the header of the widget.

Move
The Dashboard is customizable for you to drag-and-drop each widget into an open slot. This allows you to position your widgets in specific locations within the Dashboard page. Any changes will be saved to your login profile and the Dashboard will be displayed exactly the same the next time you return. To drag-and-drop your widgets, left-click and hold in the header of the widget, then drag the widget into an open slot. Once you are near an open slot, a yellow highlighted area will appear to indicate you can release your mouse button and the widget will pop into place.

An example of the location filtering options are shown below.
