Staff Dashboards

The Staff Dashboard gives you a quick, actionable view of the students assigned to you, along with recent activity and important updates. You can also customize your dashboard by adding tiles from V3 Reports, making it easier to stay organized, spot trends, and take action on your student caseload.

It's designed to help you be more productive, strategic, and student-focused in your daily work.

Dashboards

Dashboard enables staff members to efficiently manage their student caseloads by providing a customizable, at-a-glance view of critical student information and activities. This feature improves productivity and strategic decision-making and leverages our V3 report functionality to customize the dashboard for personalized needs.

*** What dashboard features you see are depended on your role and privileges in Navigate. If you cannot access all the features below email Navigate@wcupa.edu for technical assistance.

Dashboards refresh daily when the user first opens the page but do not refresh every time the user opens the dashboard. If users want to update a tile or the whole dashboard after the initial daily launch, they need to select the Refresh button.

When you change a tile setting, select Save Settings to update the dashboard.

Dashboards are available to any users with a Role with a Staff user type enabled. This includes Advisor, Tutor, and Coach. Beyond this, staff users need the correct existing permission to see data on the Dashboard or to see the Actions Menus on the tiles. If you do not have the View Alerts permission, the alerts do not show in the Activity Feed.

There are seven pre-created tiles available on the Dashboard, as well as any custom-created ones the user has made. Various settings are controlled by the Settings button and buttons in the corner of the tile. You can refresh data on any tile by clicking the Staff Dashboards 6 icon. Each tile also has a label informing users of the date and time it was last refreshed.

Creating and Editing Staff Dashboard Tiles

Important. The sample report and tile created in this article is meant to be an example; it may not reflect realistic data and is not the only type of tile users can create for the Staff Dashboard.

Users can create their own custom tiles for Staff Dashboard. In this article, we are going to show the steps needed to create a tile that shows the user's case load. To do this, users need access to the V3 Reports, specifically the Cases Report.

Building and Saving a Report

Open the Standard Reports tab in V3 Reports. For this example, select Cases Report from the list.

Staff Dashboards 21

Next, set your filters. For this example, the filter was Opened at Date is not empty. If the user wanted to view their own cases, they could also add the field Owner (user list), the condition contains any and choose their own name as the value. Select Run Report.

The Report Results display.

Staff Dashboards 22

At this point, save your report. Next, we create a basic pivot table so that a graph can be displayed on the dashboard.

Creating a Pivot Table

Select the Load Pivot Table icon. Staff Dashboards 23 The pivot table page opens as a table. Select Fields from the top bar.

Staff Dashboards 24

Set your rows, columns, and values. In this example, the row is Opened By, the value is count of Student Names, and the column is value.

Staff Dashboards 25

Once you have set your fields, click Apply. Next, re-save your report by selecting Save As… and then saving the report.

Adding the Tile to the Dashboard

Now that you have a saved report and a saved pivot table, return to the Staff Dashboard.

Select Add Tile. The Add Tile menu panel opens.

Staff Dashboards 26

Name your tile. Select a saved report from the dropdown field. In this example, it's the Who Opened the Cases?

Next, select your view from one of the three options:

  1. Detail View (Disaggregated): Shows a list of results from your report in a disaggregated view, essentially the report results. This view allows you to take actions on students directly from the dashboard tile.
  2. Chart Summary (Aggregated): Shows the pivot table chart you created, if you have done so. If you have not yet created a pivot table chart, the application will not create the tile from your saved report.
  3. Table View (Aggregated): Shows an aggregated grid you created with the pivot table tool. If you have not created a table view, the application will not create the tile using this view with your saved report.

After selecting these options, click Save Tile. The tile will now appear on Staff Dashboard.
