Dashboard¶
What it does¶
The dashboard is your home screen. It gives you a quick read on how much you're spending, what you owe, and where your payments stand — without opening any of the detailed lists.
How to use it¶
Read the board¶
The dashboard is made of widgets. Depending on what you're allowed to see, you may have:
- Count tiles for Vendors, Purchase Orders, Bills and Payments. Click any tile to open that list.
- Bills — billed vs paid — how much you've been billed against how much you've paid over time.
- Payments by status — a doughnut splitting your payments into five slices: Succeeded, In progress, Paid outside, Failed and Cancelled. Paid outside is money you settled yourself and recorded by hand — see Paying bills. Failed means the payment didn't go through, or came back after it had settled; the bills it covered reopen so you can pay them another way.
- Bill aging — outstanding bills grouped by how overdue they are.
- Top vendors by spend — who you're spending the most with.
A brand-new company sees a friendly note in each widget instead of a chart — for example No payments yet — until there's something to show.
Rearrange your dashboard¶
- Click Customize.
- Drag a card to a new spot, or use the up and down arrows on a card. On a phone, use the arrows.
- To take a widget off the board, click the × on its card, or drag it into the panel.
- To put one back, find it in the panel and click Add, or drag it onto the board.
- Close the panel when you're done — press Esc or click Customize again.
There's no Save button. Every change saves itself and a small Saved note confirms it. Your layout is yours alone; it doesn't change what anyone else sees.
To go back to the standard layout, click Customize, then Reset to default, and confirm.
Troubleshooting & Help¶
- "Couldn't save — retry." Your change didn't reach the server. Check your internet connection and make the change again.
- A widget you added isn't showing. Some widgets only appear if your account is allowed to see that information. If it never appears, ask an admin at your company.
- Dragging doesn't do anything. You have to click Customize first — cards only move while you're customizing.
- The charts look empty. There's nothing to chart yet. They fill in once you record bills and payments.
