Dashboard Docks

05. End Users: Home Page Options › Dashboards › Dashboard Docks

Note: Each procedure in this guide begins at the Contract Insight homepage, so any section can be followed on its own. Custom fields are configurable, so the exact field list on a contract category record may vary between environments.

1. Overview

A Standard dashboard is built from widgets added via an "Add to this dashboard…" picker while in Customize mode. Button tiles (shortcuts to a page or web address), Number tiles (one number from a report — a total, count, average, smallest or largest), plus built-in docks like My Tasks, Alerts, Calendar and Recent Contracts — each draggable to rearrange and resizable by dragging an edge.
