Real-Time Project Data with Dashboard Analytics

Overview: dashboard analytics


The Analytics module lets you track checklist progress, quality assurance status, and test outcomes through a filterable grid and visual dashboard charts, which is used for project health monitoring, progress reporting, and coordination meetings.


  • Your role must be Manager or Admin.
  • You can find the menu at sidebar - Analytics.
  • This changes which filters and presets you use for viewing. It does not change checklist data. Saved filter presets are visible to all project users.


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


Saved filter presets are visible to all project users, not just the person who created them.


The module must be enabled per project by a Manager or Admin before it appears in the sidebar.


How to use dashboard analytics


  1. Go to the sidebar and click Analytics. If you do not see it, the module may not be enabled for the project.
  2. Select the data area you want to explore (for example Assets, Tasks, QA, Test results).
  3. Apply filters from the filter bar: Name, Status, Category, Responsible person, Responsible company, Checklist Types, Asset Types, or Assets fields. Combine filters as needed; the grid updates immediately.
  4. Review graphs and tables for status and trends.
  5. After applying the filters you want, click Save filter and enter a name to save the combination as a preset.
  6. In the Dashboards tab, review the five chart panels: Checklist approval progress, Approval stats breakdown, Checklist line items stats, Checklist timeline, and Checklist assignments.
  7. On Checklist timeline, use the chart type selector to switch between Planned vs Actual, Planned vs Actual Accumulated, Line Items Approved Over Time, and Approved Checklists Over Time.
  8. On Checklist assignments, use the grouping selector to switch between Category, Company, Responsible person, and User group.
