About the Dashboard

Modified on Mon, 23 Sep at 5:59 PM

The dashboard is the default home page for logged-in users. Latest activities (Activity), are shown in the dashboard, as well as the organisation’s badge statistics (Statistics) and subscription status (Current Subscription).

The dashboard is visible to all users of the environment, and its purpose is to support the organisation’s team work. The tools available on the dashboard give the user a quick and easy overview of the organisation’s badge situation and latest activities.

Activity

The Activity log shows the latest activities performed in the environment. The log shows the type and time of activity, and which user is in question. The activities are usually related to badges, maintenance and user management. The Activity log also gives the user an overview of how his/her organization uses the service.

Statistics

The statistics displayed on the Dashboard are general statistics relating to the service use.

The Statistics view tells the user the following things:

Badges created: How many badges the organisation has created in the service
Badges used in issuing: How many badges out of all created badges have been issued
Total number of Earners: How many badge earners the organisation has (all issuing events in total)

With the help of the statistics, the user can follow the development of her/his own badge base, and the number of issued badges.

Please be aware of the VAT number:

VAT number is used in the EU area in order to prove that an organisation is registered for value added tax. If your organisation has a VAT number, please insert it to the VAT number field. The system will check that the number is correct.
If the subscriber doesn't have a VAT number, the current VAT rate of the subscriber's country will be added to the total sum.
