      Dashboard


        Article summary

        Antavo’s reporting Dashboard allows you to create visually represented statistics on the homepage of your Management UI. Built-in editors assist in setting up scorecards and charts, allowing you to define the statistical data you wish to visualize on the Dashboard. The Dashboard appears immediately after logging into the Management UI, and you can return to it at any time by clicking the first icon at the top of the main sidebar.

        When editing charts or scorecards, you preview how Dashboard elements will appear, even before saving changes and making them live on the Dashboard.

        Use categories to organize your coherent charts and cards. Category tabs are displayed on the left side of the Dashboard, allowing you to navigate and switch views easily.

        Configuring charts

        Charts are designed to provide insights into the changes in your metrics over time. For example, you can track the number of points earned or redeemed, reward redemptions, loyalty members (categorized by country or gender), challenge completions, customer tiers, and shares.

        By analyzing charts, you can identify trends or peak periods. If you notice any undesirable customer behavior, you can take immediate action, and adjust your loyalty program accordingly.

        Add a new chart

        To create a new chart, click the Create chart button on the top right-hand side of the Dashboard.

        Basic information

        • Add chart title
          The title will appear at the top of the chart on the Dashboard. Please ensure that the title does not exceed 32 characters.

        • Provide a short description
          Include a brief description that does not exceed 128 characters.

        • Select or create a category
          Choose an existing category from the dropdown or create a new one by typing a category name into the field. Categories are displayed as separate tabs or pages on the Dashboard where cards and charts are organized. Make sure the category name does not exceed 32 characters.

        Data set

        • Define the chart  data type
          Select a data type from the dropdown menu to determine the information displayed on the chart. Each chart can only represent one data type. For multiple data types, please create additional charts.

        • Group your data
          Organize your dataset to compare results across different subsets of data. For example, you can compare the number of shares across social media networks.

        • Select data groups for display
          Choose one or more groups to visualize on the chart. You can narrow down the data display to specific subsets, such as showing only the number of Facebook shares on the chart.
          You can filter by customer events. The data type should be set to action, to include the custom event as an available option in the Allowed groups field.

        • Limit displayed groups
          If necessary, limit the number of groups displayed on the chart to focus on the most relevant data.

        Data visualization

        • Select a chart type
          Select the type of chart you wish to create: line, area, bar, or pie chart.

        • Enable Stack for bar charts
          When creating a bar chart, enable the Stack option to display data subsets stacked on top of each other. By default, subsets are displayed side by side.

        • Select timeframe
          Choose the timeframe for the data displayed on the chart.

        • Activate date picker
          Turn on the date picker to update the timeframe directly on the Dashboard.

        • Select time resolution
          Define the time resolution to specify the data granularity displayed on the chart.

        • Adjust chart width
          Select the width of the chart display: full, quarter, half, or one-sixth of the page.

        • Choose visualization direction
          For line, area, and bar charts, choose between vertical or horizontal visualization. The direction setting does not apply to pie charts.

        Unknown values

        • Allow unknown values
          If you’ve applied grouping to the chart, decide whether to display data with unknown values as a separate group on the chart. For example, this could represent the number of customers without a tier in the loyalty program.

        • Name the unknown group
          Ensure that the name does not exceed 32 characters.

        Before closing the page, remember to save your chart by clicking the Save button.

        Configuring scorecards

        A scorecard displays a single key metric, serving as a benchmark in your loyalty program. This could include tracking the average basket value per tier, total points earned or spent, the overall number of loyalty members (categorized by gender or age), or average daily or monthly point earnings.

        Add a new scorecard

        Click the Create card button on the sidebar or the top right-hand corner of the Dashboard.
