A dashboard is a static, user-definable view comprised of any combination of the following components: embedded charts, embedded reports, images, labels, and links to queries, reports, and Web sites.

Dashboards can be used to view any collection of components as a single unit, but are especially useful to provide a high-level overview of the status of a project or set of projects. You can design one dashboard for all projects and select the appropriate project(s) from the dashboard project filter at run time.
