How-to Guide
1. Add a table component to a dashboard
Entry: Dashboard interface → "+ Add Component" → View → "Table"
- Open the dashboard interface and click "+ Add Component" in the upper-left area.
- In the component panel, find the "Table" icon under the View category.
- Click "Table" to create a default table component automatically.
- Select the new component to enter editing mode and continue with configuration.
Success Criteria
- A new table component appears in the dashboard.
- The component can be selected for further configuration.
Tips While Using
- The inserted component is a default table, so you will usually need to configure its data next.
- If the current dashboard has no available data, the table may appear empty after insertion.
2. Edit or delete a table component
Entry: Select an existing table component → top-right "..." icon
- Select the table component that has already been added to the dashboard.
- Click the "..." icon in the upper-right corner of the component.
- Select "Configure" to adjust the table data or display settings again.
- Select "Duplicate" to create a copy of the current table component.
- Select "Delete" to remove the current table component.
Success Criteria
- The component action menu opens successfully.
- The selected action takes effect, such as opening configuration, creating a copy, or removing the component.
Tips While Using
- Deleting removes the current component, so confirm that you no longer need it before proceeding.
- After duplicating a component, it is helpful to give each one a clear purpose to avoid repeated content.
3. Configure table component settings
Entry: Table configuration panel
- Open the configuration panel for the table component.
- Under "Data Source," select the data table you want to use.
- Under "Record Filter," set the conditions for the records you want to display.
- Under "Field Settings," choose which fields should appear in the table.
- Under "Sort," set the order for the displayed data.
- Under "Group," set how the data should be grouped.
- Under "Row Height," choose the display style that fits your layout.
- Review the result in the preview pane and click "OK" to apply the settings.
Success Criteria
- The preview area shows the updated table result.
- After you click "OK," the dashboard table component displays the new settings.
Tips While Using
- Too many visible fields can reduce readability, so keep the most important ones first.
- For large data sets, combine filters and grouping to narrow the displayed range.
