Dashboard is the first of the nine workspace modes and the one Beagle opens on. The heading reads Beagle Dashboard.
#What information the Dashboard displays
Across the top: Total Hours, Billable Hours, Non-Billable Hours and Value. They describe the range and filters currently set below them, not your whole practice โ change the date range and all four change with it.
Value is money from billable time only. A total with nothing behind it shows
a dash rather than 0, so an empty range reads as empty rather than as a real
zero.
#Recent Matters and Tasks
Recent Matters lists matters with recent time against them, each with its client and the hours booked. Both the matter name and the client name are clickable, and take you to that record in the Matters or Clients workspace.
Tasks has two columns, Overdue and Today. When there is nothing in them they say so โ You are all caught up! and You are done for Today!
#Your time, below
Under the cards are the time entries themselves, in either Calendar or Table form, across Day, Week, Month or Year. Day and week are the ones to reach for when you are checking individual blocks of work; month and year are for totals. Alongside those are filters for All / Billable / Non-Billable, a client filter, a matter filter, and a search box.
That combination is what makes the Dashboard a daily review screen: set it to today, look at the entries, and confirm every meaningful block of work has an entry and that the billable flag is right โ before any of it reaches an invoice or an export.
#What you can and cannot change
You cannot add, remove or rearrange the four totals or the two cards. They are the same for everyone in the firm, which is what makes it possible to talk about "the Dashboard" and mean one thing.
What you change is the view: the date range, calendar or table, the billable filter, the client and matter filters, and the search box.
