About This Feature

Overview

Data Dashboard is a Smart Form feature in WPS Office for Mac that helps you configure and manage attendance-related data display. It is available inside the attendance module of the form editor, where you can open the dashboard settings area, adjust display options, preview the result, and save the configuration.

Main tasks include:

  • Open the Data Dashboard entry from the form editor.
  • Enter the dashboard editing area.
  • Preview the current dashboard effect before saving.
  • Save the dashboard configuration after confirmation.

This workflow is useful for attendance check-ins, sign-in tracking, periodic data review, and form result display.

Capability SummarySmart Forms can show live response data, charts, and submission status in survey or attendance scenarios, and the data can be exported for deeper analysis.Microsoft Forms provides real-time analytics, response summaries, individual results, and Excel export.Google Forms provides response summaries, per-question and per-person views, plus Google Sheets and CSV export.Notion Forms stores responses in databases, which can then be visualized through chart views or dashboard views.Adobe Acrobat mainly collects PDF form data and exports it to spreadsheet or XML formats for later review.

Overall Conclusion

If you want a more direct workflow for configuring, previewing, and saving attendance-related dashboard settings inside Smart Forms, WPS keeps the process more centralized. If your team already works mainly in Microsoft, Google, Notion, or Adobe environments, those tools can also support response review in their own ways.
