About This Feature

Overview

Data Dashboard is a configuration feature in the Smart Form relay workflow in WPS Office for Windows. It is used to set up, preview, and manage dashboard-style data displays during relay creation. You can use it before publishing to confirm the display setup, then return later to review participation and statistics.

Core tasks include:

Open the Data Dashboard entry: go from the form editor to the Relay module and open the Data Dashboard option.
Configure and preview the dashboard: adjust settings in the panel and check the display result.
Save the setup and review statistics: confirm the settings, then continue to participation and statistics views.

Common use cases include event sign-up relays, information collection relays, and progress tracking relays.

Capability Summary	In Smart Form, Data Dashboard is used to configure, preview, and manage dashboard display for relay workflows, and it is part of the relay creation flow.	Microsoft Forms provides response summaries, individual results, question-level details, and Excel export for deeper analysis.	Google Forms lets you review responses in Summary, Question, and Individual views, and send results to Google Sheets or download CSV files.	Notion provides chart views and dashboard views for databases so you can organize multiple charts and views in one place.	Adobe Acrobat provides web form creation and management, with emphasis on publishing, collecting, and managing web forms.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The Data Dashboard entry is built directly into the Smart Form relay workflow, making setup and preview part of the creation process.	Compared with WPS: It focuses more on response analytics and Excel export, while the cited page does not show a relay-style built-in dashboard setup flow.	Compared with WPS: It focuses more on response summaries and spreadsheet-linked analysis, while the cited page does not show a dedicated dashboard setup entry inside a relay workflow.	Compared with WPS: It works well for database charts and dashboards, but the chart experience is based on database views rather than a dedicated relay configuration step.	Compared with WPS: It focuses on web form management and e-sign related workflows, and the cited help page does not highlight a relay-style dashboard configuration flow.

Overall Conclusion
If you want to configure and preview data display directly inside a Smart Form relay workflow, WPS keeps the path more focused. The other products are stronger in response summaries, database dashboards, or web form management, so their workflows are not the same as a relay-based data dashboard setup.
