Dashboards and Dashlets
Dashboards are designed for quick navigation within the AtroCore entities data displayed on separate dashlets. The dashboard is the starting page of AtroCore that can be reached any time via clicking the AtroCore logo located in the upper left corner of the AtroCore pages:
Both dashboards and dashlets are user customizable, i.e. you can add, rename and delete dashboards, as well as modify the dashlets layout.
Dashboards
The My AtroCore dashboard comes out-of-the-box and is displayed on the AtroCore starting page by default. It can be customized by adding the desired dashlets and configuring them.
Creating a Dashboard
It is also possible to create custom boards. To do this, click the pencil icon on the AtroCore starting page and enter the desired dashboard name in the editing pop-up that appears and hit Enter:

Please, note that in the given editing pop-up you can create as many dashboards as needed, but their customization is performed separately for each dashboard.
