Reports and Dashboards Module Overview
Folders can be used to divide or group all the reports and dashboards created in the system. Available folders: • Out of the box folders (Budget, Cases,
Customer, etc) • Folders created by the user • Special folders:
• My reports – each user in the org has their own “my reports” folder, that acts as a private folder only for the current user which can be used to save personal reports & dashboards
• All reports – displays a list of all the reports & dashboards that you have permissions to view
• Unfiled – a public folder available to everyone in the org

+ icon located under the list of folders. Arrange your reports and dashboards by dragging and dropping them between folders you have sharing permissions on.

Overview

Dashboards Module Overview
• Dashboards allows you to create a one glance view of reports spanning multiple data objects.
• For example, you could have a dashboard consolidating different reports on timesheets, expenses, project status, requests, and resources – where each report could be displayed in a different format (chart, grid, or highlights).
• Just like in the Reports editing feature, you can define sharing permissions for each dashboard

Adding Filters to a Report
24
Exercise 1 – Create & Manage Reports
Add filter parameters either on the report entity or the related data • For objects with a role (work items, cases, etc.) you can set the role filter
• By default the role is set to “all” which shows all objects the user has permission to view, but this can be filtered for a specific role - such as project manager, reviewer, etc.
• Set “Role” to “Any” • Filters can be simple or advanced
• Simple filters simply mean that each filter criteria is separated by an “and” while advanced allows you to add an “or” between parameters
• Add “Project Type” and “State” as filters • When creating a report you can select to “show at runtime”, this allows the
running user to set/edit the filter values so you do not have to set them now • Click and enable “Show at runtime” option

Creating Multiple Pivot Reports
26
Exercise 1 – Create & Manage Reports
One report can contain several pivots or dimensions on the same data, allowing you to quickly view the data in different perspectives • For instance, a report on running projects can be viewed grouped by project
manager in one pivot, profitability in another, and overall success rate on the third
• Rename the default pivot tab to “By PM”. • Click “Add pivot tab” and call that new tab “Cost”
• Pivot tab menu options include: • Rename – allows you to rename the selected tab • Delete – allows you to delete the selected tab • You can also reorder the various tabs using drag and drop
• The Business question field provides an optional header for each tab, making it easier for viewers to understand what data they are viewing.
• Enter “How are my PMs performing?” for the “By PM” tab and “What is our cost performance?” for the “Cost” pivot tab

• For example, the total cost of all running projects or the total billable hours • In “How are my PMs Performing” tab, Click “Add Highlight” and provide the following:
• Caption : “Total Costs” • Define the summary type, you can even add formula functionality to the mix : “Sum” • Select the field or formula you wish to highlight : “Actual Cost”

Setting the Running User and Schedule Refresh Options
40
Exercise 2 – Create & Manage Dashboards
The “Running User” of a dashboard determines under which user’s permissions the reports within the dashboard will run, and thereby affect the results of the dashboard • By default, the “Running User” is set to the current user, meaning that each
user that runs a dashboard will see only the data they have permissions to view
• Admin users can set the “Running User” to any user in the system • Once a specific user is selected, the dashboard shows the data as per the
permissions of that user, and therefore all users who have access to the dashboard will see the same resulting data
• Once the “Running User” is set, the admin user can select to schedule a refresh by clicking on the “Scheduled Refresh” button
• This enables the automatic refresh of a dashboard, upon which a notification will be sent out to the relevant user, including an export of the dashboard (if selected)
• When scheduled a refresh, the admin can choose to disable manual refreshing of the dashboard, ensuring that data of the past refresh remains untouched

automatically filled with the selected report’s name if not manually set • Type in the report to display or click the ellipse under “Report to display”, and
select “Project Status by PM” – this allows you to select the relevant report • Under “Report tab to display” select “By PM” - allows you to select the relevant
pivot tab of a report (this is only available if the report has multiple tabs) • Under “Filters” select the filtering criteria for the report • Select the visual display, under “Style” – allows you to select the report
element(s) to display • In wide columns, you can choose to see the highlight (where applicable) AND
either the chart or the table • In narrow columns, you can choose to see either the highlights, chart, or table • When selecting table, you can choose which fields to view (fields available are
only those already selected in the report itself) • Continue to add other reports to the other two panels
