Dashboards
The dashboard allows you to view many areas of your projects at a glance. It provides a quick overview of the current project information without having to open the individual projects. Views can be configured individually for each user.
Tip For advanced users, we recommend our dashboard and reports workshop to enable you to work independently with the extensive and sometimes complex functions (available both as on-site training and online training).
