Dashboards – wall screens with KPI widgets

Dashboards let you set up a screen in the warehouse – e.g. above the picking hall or in an office – and show key figures (KPIs) in real time via widgets that you arrange yourself in a grid.

How to find Dashboards​

  1. Go to Settings.
  2. Select Dashboards.
info

Dashboards is a paid add-on module. You are billed 49 DKK/month per dashboard.

Overview of dashboards​

The page shows a list of your dashboards with the columns ID, Name, Grid, Fields, Refresh, Opening hours, Created by, and Actions.

The list of dashboards in settings

Below the list you'll find Pending approvals: a screen is identified by its browser and IP address and is approved once and for all dashboards. As soon as a new screen opens a dashboard link without being approved yet, it shows a pairing screen with a code instead of the figures – approve it from here, and it can then show any of your dashboards. The table shows ID, Code, IP address, Browser, Status, Last seen, and Actions.

Create a new dashboard​

Click New dashboard to start from scratch, or Use a template to choose a predefined setup from a list showing the template's name, grid size, number of fields, and a short description.

In the form, fill in:

  • Name – the dashboard's name.
  • Grid – number of Columns and Rows. Making the grid smaller removes fields that fall outside it.
  • Refresh – how often the screen fetches new figures, e.g. "1 min".
  • Appearance – Dark or Light. Dark suits a picking hall, light suits a bright office.
  • Logo – shown next to the name on the screen. PNG, JPG, or GIF, up to 2 MB.
  • Opening hours – set the time period during which you need the dashboard to refresh. Outside the set time period, the dashboard will "sleep". Leave both fields empty to keep the screen awake around the clock.
  • Open weekdays – which weekdays the dashboard should show data (Monday–Friday are checked by default).

Click Save to create the dashboard.

Edit a dashboard and add KPI fields​

Once a dashboard has been created, the edit page opens with the same settings as at creation, along with links to the screen that will show the dashboard (both a short link and the underlying link), buttons to generate a new link, and to clone the entire dashboard.

The edit page also has a Notification banner: a text shown at the top of the screen, above the fields. Leave the field empty to show no banner. Next to it, choose the banner's Importance (e.g. Information or Critical), which controls how the banner is highlighted on the screen, as well as how long it should be shown before it is automatically removed again.

Editing a dashboard with grid and fields

The grid itself is where you build the screen's content: each cell can be filled with a KPI widget. Drag widgets into the grid from the list on the right (drag and drop). When a widget is dragged in, a window will open where the specific KPIs can be entered and the individual widget can be configured. Among other things, you must filter by subsites, tags, shipping methods, status, etc.

Modal for adding a KPI field to the grid

Once a widget has been placed, you can move it and resize it in the grid, and some widgets also have their own settings that you can adjust.
