• Enter a Name for the new dashboard component.
  • This name will appear on the Dashboard Components Selection window when a user adds a new component to their dashboard, so be as descriptive as possible.
  • This field is limited to 32 alphanumeric characters. Once the component is saved the name cannot be edited.
• Enter a User Group Code or click the field label to select one from a list.
  • User groups allow you to create menu and database security at a group level and then assign that security to users. Only those users that are part of the selected User Group will have access to the new dashboard component.

• The Start Date field is used to specify when the component data should first be updated.
  • The system will create a job on the job scheduler for the specified date. When the job is processed, relevant data for the year prior to the date will be generated for display in the dashboard component. This field will default to today's date.
