Dashboards is an add-on feature. We encourage all customers to get to know this exciting new feature.

  • Read on! This documentation covers Dashboards in detail.
  • View the Dashboards Webinar (1 hour)
  • Check out the introductory Dashboards Video (5 min) Coming soon!

Contact us at sales@frevvo.com if you are interested in adding this feature to your account.

Overview

frevvo Dashboards is a reporting feature that allows you to collate, visualize and share metrics and operational insights from your forms and workflows. Use Dashboards to create beautiful, functional reports that give your stakeholders at-a-glance insight into your business and help you monitor the efficiency of your workflow processes. Designers will appreciate the familiar user interface, the broad selection of chart types, filtering and customization options, and the ability to deploy dashboards anywhere, just like a form or workflow.

Info

This Dashboards documentation assumes a general knowledge of frevvo design features for forms and workflows, including controls, business rules and settings. Designers building dashboards likely already have forms and workflows in production with submissions. If you are new to frevvo, we recommend starting with the Quick Start Video Guide or the Workflow Tutorial.

Designing forms and workflows with dashboards in mind will ensure your process is complete, efficient, productive, and manageable. Form/Workflow design should take into account the key stakeholders in the process and the reporting, monitoring, analysis, and strategic needs of the stakeholders and participants. The designer must quantify and specify those insights in terms of measurements, key performance indicators (KPIs), analytics, and data that is to be derived. This information can be roughly categorized into:

  • Strategic data that is used to measure the process against set goals
  • Analytical information that is more tactical and discovery in nature
  • Operational and real-time process information

For example, a strategic goal in a Procure-to-Pay process might be on-time procurement. The designer would want to ensure the workflow captures data that can measure this, such as a deadline date and a calculation to determine if the procurement is early, on - time, or late.

An example of a tactical insight in the same Procure-to-Pay process is discovering volume buying and discount opportunities. The form/workflow should capture relevant information on the product/service, including category, vendor, rate, and discount information (if any) that allows a stakeholder to assess this metric.

Here's an example of a Column chart that was originally designed to display the average Number and Price (metrics) by widget type (dimension). If the Price control is changed from a Money control to a Text control, I see the chart displayed with a validation error in design mode. The Dashboard runs in test and use mode, but the Price calculation does not include submissions since this change. This means your Dashboard users may not know right away there is a problem, but they may see incorrect data.

Style properties allow the designer to customize the look and feel of the runtime dashboard and the PDF Snapshot. See the Style Settings documentation for additional details on each of the available properties.
