Configure Settings for Role-Based Customizable Dashboards

Dashboards allow you to create customizable Analytics dashboards that provide role-specific information. By default, Demandbase provides you with a Sales Dashboard and a Marketing Dashboard. You can also create your own dashboards or customize the existing ones further for each of your roles.

After you finish customizing your dashboards, you can assign them to user views so users see sections and reports you added. See the following articles:

• Understanding the Account List Dashboard and Account Dashboard
• Understanding the Person Dashboard and People Page.

Dashboard Page Types

To ensure each role can quickly find what they’re looking for and take appropriate action, you can select the sections and reports that appear in their dashboard. For each dashboard, you can configure the following page types: 

• Account List
• Single Account
• Single Person

As you add, remove, or rearrange items for each page type, the page preview updates to show how the page looks for your users.

By default, the Sales and Marketing Dashboards have the following sections added for each page type:
