Administer Dashboards

You can create and maintain dashboards to meet the needs of your organization. A dashboard is a personal page containing elements from the dashboard library.

You use the Dashboard Builder to manage the dashboard library. The dashboard library contains content that you can include in dashboards as dash items. To manage the dashboard library, use the Administration, Dashboard Builder menu.

Administrators and other users select the Administration, Dashboard menu to display, and manage dashboards, to extend permissions for their roles.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to CA Service Catalog.
  2. Click Administration, Dashboard Builder.

    The Dashboard Library folders appear. Displays the dashboards that you have the permission to access.

  3. Expand the library tree and find the category for which you want to administer dashboards.
  4. (Optional) Install ActiveX components, if prompted.

    Note: Some dashboard items require ActiveX. When you first access a Dashboard Builder item, it prompts you to install ActiveX components in your browser. In such cases, follow the prompts to install the ActiveX components. When completed, resume administering the dashboard.

  5. Select the option that you want from the Action drop-down list and click Go.

    Note: The options vary according to the category that you have selected in the library tree.

  6. Repeat these steps as needed for each dashboard that you must administer.

    You have added dashboards to administer.
