Dashboard editor for plants and systems
Target group and use
The Dashboard Editor is a tool for creating User Dashboards, Plants and System Dashboards. It replaces the current function 'Edit mode' below the 'Dashboard overview' as of D18.
- Existing User and Plant, and System Dashboards are automatically migrated to the new Dashboard Editor.
The new Dashboard Editor can create separate administrator roles to create own dashboards as well as user roles with purely observer rights.
- As a consequence, the Dashboard Editor is primarily designed for administrator roles.
- All user roles can currently access the Dashboard Editor. Administrators will be able to limit access rights by roles in the future.
The Dashboard Editor functions similar to the current 'Edit mode'. However, some workflows are redesigned, for example to access the Dashboard Editor via 'Apps', highlighting data points for the 'Favorites' menu, or sorting tiles on the Dashboard.
The Dashboard Editor is designed to accommodate functional extensions as part of upcoming deployments.
The Dashboard Editor is divided into:
- Plant Dashboards to generate dashboards for a quick overview of the plant state: Plant Dashboards.
- System Dashboards generate dashboards for a quick overview of the system state: System Dashboards.
