Tab

Field

Description

Column tab

-

Sets column specific settings.

Header Text

Sets the header column name. If the column is to be Person, it should be labeled like Person or Employee

Column Align

Allows the column to be left justified, center aligned, or right justified. As learnt from the majority of our clients, and our product team, typically text columns like Matter/Client/Person etc will be left justified.

Sortable

If yes is selected this column can be sorted. If not, the column will be static. Use the Sort field next.

Sort Field

If Sortable is set to Yes, you can use the dropdown to pick the column sort field.

Formatting

Sets the column formatting. Samples are Text, Date, Date and Time, Number, Decimal, Currency.

Footer Value Aggregator

Sets how to calculate that total. Count, Average or a percentage are available options.

Footer Text

If set to yes, it allows a textual description of the column total to be added on the bottom. An example would be the Count of Audit Entries.

Text Template

Allows to set the template of how the total text appears. Like Total{0} pulls the Total of kpi 0 next to Total.

First Line/Second Line/Third Line

Configures the lines of the table as headers or as other types.

Collapsible Line

Allows to collapse the line or not.

Button Position

Sets where to put a button in the line (if applicable)

Hyperlink tab

-

Sets hyperlinking of the column to a specific place.

Link To

Sets the type of link to be an external URL, or a dashboard.

Dashboard

If dashboard is selected, select the dashboard. It would be treated as a drill through type.

URL Parameters

For both types of links, this allows the system to generate URL parameters based on data pulled. For example if the table was for a client, you can select the field ClientId and have it pull the clientid dynamically.

URL

If External URL is selected, enter the URL here.

...

If the Tree node is selected, the following options are available upon clicking into a data field:

  1. Parent Value Field: The data field column

  2. Node field: This does the ‘tree branch’ where it groups by the parent and then lists out the children. For example, if you want clients grouped then matters to show, set this as MatterId.

  3. Root value: If a numerical field, you can set a root value to display, on the node.

  4. Leaf field: Adds the final grouping field. For example, if grouped by client, then matter, then the person set the leaf as ResponsiblePerson or PersonId.

  5. Leaf value: Sets the numerical leaf grouping value.

...

Column settings

Selecting the Columns tab, then clicking back into the Column allows these fields to be present:

...

Clicking the Records tab allows setting which columns are in the list.

  1. Set the name of the column as you choose (the parent will not have a name).

  2. Click Add Field to add additional columns from the report.

  3. Clicking the Add Widget dropdown allows adding another widget within the list directly (sub-widget).

  4. Pagination of the list widget can be performed as well.

...

Grouping and sorting of the list can be performed.

Grouping
  1. Edit the Widget.

  2. Click the Visualization tab then select Grouping.

  3. Enter the field(s) you want to group by using the Add Field button. It is in order of adding the grouping to the list. For example, this grouping below adds a grouping on Department first, then by the Last Accessed Time.

  4. When we have multiple grouping keys, sorting is first done by the first key and then the second one. To be able to see that behavior we should have data set where the second key creates a "subgroup" from the first one. Grouping by ClientName or CleintName/ClientId is the same and there is nothing to sort after records are sorted by ClientName.

...

Sorting
  1. Sorting can also be performed by editing the widget.

  2. Click the Visualization tab then select Sorting.

  3. Enter the field(s) you want to sort by using the Add Field button. It is in order of adding the sorting to the list. For example, this sorting below adds a sorting on Rank.

...

  1. After completing the edit, the Sorting can be shown by clicking the Sort button and then clicking the Ascending or Descending arrows on the particular sort field.

Charts

Column Chart

Alert widgets are generally used to show a message in the widget when the values of an entry meet or do not meet certain criteria.

...

  1. Use the Template tab to adjust the label of the alert, the color, and the text to be displayed.

  2. Use the Visibility tab to configure the conditions for the alert to be shown. Once the fields/values have been selected, you will be able to select the operator to use: Equal (=) or Not equal (!=). In the example above, the alert will only be shown when the Rank is not equal to Associate and Contract Lawyer.
