Widget actions
When you can edit the dashboard:
Anyone who can view the dashboard can open View parameters and Refresh. Drag-and-drop reordering is available when you have edit access.
Widget Edit saves overrides on the dashboard widget only — the underlying Explorer report is unchanged. End dates in the future append a forecast (dashed bars) beyond yesterday’s last complete day. To point a widget at a different report, use Replace report. Each dashboard can hold up to 50 widgets.
Share with your team
