Overview
The summary view puts key dollar-based Metrics front and center, giving you a quick snapshot of monthly performance. Below that, the
grid
provides a high-level overview of essential data points, while the
Insights
section at the bottom uses visualizations to help uncover trends and patterns. To the right, data is organized by
Type
, making it easy to locate and compare related figures at a glance.
Let's take a closer look at each section.
Metrics
The Dashboard displays key financial metrics starting with
Today's Sales
, based on the date shown at the top of the screen. This is followed by
Monthly Sales, Total Gross, Gross per Service Order
, and finally, the value of
Open Work
.
The first four metrics are calculated from
cashiered
Service Orders, while
Open Work
represents the total value of jobs still in progress. This provides a high-level view of current workload but is
not
intended for payroll calculations.
To make navigation even easier, helpful tooltips are available - just hover over each button to see a brief description.
Column Groupings
The
Sold Today
section displays all Service Orders cashiered today, including sub-columns for the number of Service Orders, associated Hours, Sales, Gross, Gross %, and Effective Labour Rate.
The
Monthly Sales
section provides month-to-date figures with detailed breakdowns, while the
Open SOs
section highlights the current number of open Service Orders, their age, and total Work in Progress (WIP) sales to date.
You can further tailor the data by right-clicking on specific columns.
-
For
Age
, choose to display either the
oldest
or
average
open SO age.
-
For
Gross
, switch between viewing totals or values
per unit
. Data will update instantly based on your selection.
To support your understanding, we've included helpful tooltips for each column, featuring definitions and calculation details.
Views
The Dashboard offers multiple ways to analyze your data, including views by
Advisor, Pay Type
, and
Shop
. For divisional Dealerships, three additional views are available:
Advisor by Division
,
Pay Type by Division
, and
Shop by Division
.
To change views, simply
right-click
, select
View
, and choose your preferred option. The right-click menu also provides the ability to expand or collapse data groups and includes various export options for easier sharing and reporting.
Example: Divisional Dashboard
In divisional setups, the grid includes an additional layer in the menu tree, showing the
Division name
first. From there, you can drill down into each store for detailed month-over-month comparisons.
Example: Non-Divisional or Single Store
For non-divisional stores or single-store dashboards, the menu tree reflects the selected view (e.g., Advisor, Shop), and still allows drill-down access to more detailed performance data.
Insights
Along the bottom of the Dashboard, you'll find two trend-focused charts:
Sales Trending
and
Gross Trending
. These visuals display data for the current week, ending with today's date.
Groups
The right-hand panel displays grouped statistics for cashiered Service Orders, providing a monthly breakdown by
Pay Type
,
Sales Type
, and
Op Code Category
.
Detailed View
Clicking any Metric buttons or data point in the
summary grid
opens a detailed view, revealing additional columns for deeper analysis. The Dashboard also highlights the drill-down path, allowing Users to easily navigate back with a single click.
Advanced Filter
Users can quickly refine data with a variety of options in the
Advanced Filter
, accessible from both the summary and detailed Dashboard views for enhanced granularity.
