Composing Dashboards |

A Dashboard equips you with actionable business information in a format that is intuitive and insightful. A dashboard leverages operational data primarily in the form of metrics and KPIs.

Note: To see the Process Platform BAM views, the Client machine accessing the browser must have Adobe Flash Player 8.0 (or above).
You can create Custom dashboards using the Dashboard Designer (XForms) with the help of the already available Business Measures, and KPIs. Custom Dashboards help you with visualization of the process performance.
Note: You can visualize the non-process data through Dashboard Designer, by creating a Business Measure on the Enterprise Data Object.
The Business Measure, KPI, Process Monitoring Object Instances, and so on created are available as a composite controls and you can use these composite controls to create a Dashboard. To make such dashboard, drag the composite control to XForms designer.
