# Navigating the Dashboard

# **Navigating the Dashboard**

The **Dashboard** is the main workspace overview in uAuditor. It provides a real-time snapshot of inspection activity, operational performance, and execution quality across your organization.

From the dashboard, users can quickly start inspections, review trends, and monitor key performance indicators without navigating between modules 📊

## **What the Dashboard Shows**

The dashboard summarizes your organization’s inspection performance using visual indicators and quick-access tools.

It typically includes:

- quick action shortcuts
- monthly inspection summary
- completion and pass-rate trends
- inspection status distribution
- top inspector performance
- equipment inspection activity
- recent inspections list

Displayed data depends on your **role, permissions, and assigned locations** 🔐

## **Quick Actions**

Quick actions allow you to start common workflows immediately.

Available shortcuts include:

- Create Inspection
- View All Inspections
- Open Templates

These actions help users begin inspections faster without navigating through multiple modules.

## **Monthly Performance Summary**

The dashboard compares the current month’s inspection activity with the previous month.

Metrics typically include:

- total inspections
- completion rate
- pass rate
- average quality score

Trend indicators help supervisors quickly understand whether performance is improving or declining 📈

## **Inspection Status Chart**

The inspection status chart displays inspection distribution by status:

- New
- Completed without issues
- Completed with failed items

This visualization helps identify execution gaps and compliance risks across locations.

## **Top Inspectors**

The **Top Inspectors** section highlights users with the highest inspection activity.

This helps organizations:

- measure inspector productivity
- identify active contributors
- monitor execution consistency

Managers can use this data to balance workload across teams.

## **Top Equipment Performance**

This section shows the most frequently inspected equipment across locations.

It helps organizations:

- monitor asset inspection coverage
- identify critical equipment
- track maintenance-related inspections

Equipment performance insights support preventive maintenance strategies 🔧

## **Recent Inspections**

The **Recent Inspections** list displays the latest inspections performed across your workspace.

Each entry typically includes:

- inspection title
- inspector name
- location
- completion date
- inspection score

This allows supervisors to review the most recent operational activity quickly.

## **How Dashboard Visibility Works**

Dashboard content adjusts automatically depending on user access level.

For example:

- administrators see all locations
- location managers see assigned branches
- inspectors see their own inspections

This ensures users only view relevant operational data.

## **Best Practices for Using the Dashboard**

To get the most value from the dashboard:

- review performance trends daily
- monitor failed inspections regularly
- track completion rates across locations
- identify recurring equipment issues
- follow up on low inspection scores quickly

Consistent monitoring improves execution quality and operational visibility.
