Real-Time Project Data with Dashboard Analytics

Overview


How do I use the dashboard analytics to track project progress?


The Analytics module in CxPlanner provides real-time insights into task progress, quality assurance, test outcomes, and more. You can monitor project health and drill into specific areas using built-in filters and reports.


Only users with the project role Manager or Admin can access this module (if activated for the project).

When and why to use this


Use the analytics dashboard when you need quick insights or reports about project performance.


  • See metrics like completed tasks, failed tests, or open QA items
  • Filter by specific categories, systems, or dates
  • Analytics help inform decisions and highlight areas that need attention
  • The module must be enabled per project to be visible


Steps to access dashboard analytics:


  1. Go to the sidebar and click on Analytics.

If you don’t see it, the module may not be enabled for the project.


  1. Select the data area you want to explore (e.g., Tasks, QA, Test results).


  1. Use filters and sorting tools to refine your insights.


  1. Review graphs and tables to understand status and trends.


Analytics overview



Behavior and results


The dashboard provides visual overviews of project areas like:

  • Task progress (e.g., completed this week)
  • QA statuses (e.g., failed checklists or pending approvals)
  • System-specific performance (e.g., ventilation test failures)


Filters allow custom reporting by:

  • Time range (e.g., yesterday, last 7 days)
  • System type
  • Category or responsible person


Each project must manually activate the Analytics module to make it accessible
