Dashboards and Dashlets

Dashboards are designed for quick navigation within the KennerPim entities data displayed on separate dashlets. The dashboard is the starting page of KennerPim that can be reached any time via clicking the KennerPim logo located in the upper left corner of the KennerPim pages:

Dashboard

Both dashboards and dashlets are user customizable, i.e. you can add, rename and delete dashboards, as well as modify the dashlets layout.

Dashboards

The My KennerCore dashboard comes out-of-the-box and is displayed on the KennerPim starting page by default. It can be customized by adding the desired dashlets and configuring them.

Creating a Dashboard

It is also possible to create custom boards. To do this, click the pencil icon on the KennerPim starting page and enter the desired dashboard name in the editing pop-up that appears and hit Enter:

New dashboard

Click the Save button to complete the operation or Cancel to abort the process.

Please, note that in the given editing pop-up you can create as many dashboards as needed, but their customization is performed separately for each dashboard.

Creating new dashboards is useful if you wish to group a different set of dashlets, consisting of certain information of the same nature or type, to help you make the right decision.
