Live dashboard

The Live dashboard shows today at one location and updates in real time – you never need to refresh. It's the screen to keep open at the desk through the day.

What's on the dashboard

Each card answers one question about right now:

• Who's on right now – the staff currently on shift, color-coded by role, so you can see at a glance how the location is staffed.
• Coverage for today – required versus scheduled staff per role, laid out on a timeline with a marker showing where "now" is. If the evening is short of staff, you'll see it hours ahead.
• Staff today – the full roster of everyone scheduled today.
• Open shifts needing attention – unfilled shifts you can assign or acknowledge directly from the card. See Open shifts.
• Alerts ticker – approved alerts scroll across the top of the dashboard, so "Elevator B is down" is visible to everyone watching. See Alerts.
• Recent handover notes – the latest notes for your departments. Owners only see this card for departments where they personally work shifts; otherwise handover notes stay working context for the team on shift. See Handover notes.
• Shifts up for swap – swap requests waiting on a decision, with approve and decline right there for managers. See Shift swaps.

When something isn't set up yet

If part of your workspace isn't configured, a Getting started card points you to the next step – for example setting up coverage, adding your team, or importing a schedule.

Using it through the day

Leave the dashboard open at the front desk or the manager's station. Because it updates live, the moment a manager at Northside Inn assigns an open shift or approves an alert, everyone looking at the screen sees it – there is no need to refresh and no need to ask whether the message arrived.
