    Dashboard Screenlets - Metrics

    I was wondering if it was possible to create our own and edit the existing screenlets for the dashboards.  I am looking to create an executive dashboard and was hoping to create a "Total Sales" metric that would show how much our company did in sales for a day.  Right now I am experimenting with graphs that have a single day metric, but it does not look as clean as a Screenlet - Metric.  

    Also, is there an "object" that i can use under the controls of a report that will also show a single stat? 

    Graphs are great, but sometimes, a single stat is a better metric on a dashboard or report.

    Thanks

    Hi, Drabert!

    Great question. 

    It is possible to customize and edit screenlets, but considering the insights dashboard is still in beta, we have the customization aspect behind a feature flag. 

    However, it does require a strong understanding of customization.

    I would highly recommend talking to your account manager to discuss further options. 

    You also asked:
    "Also, is there an "object" that i can use under the controls of a report that will also show a single stat? "

    I'm not too sure which report you mean, but there are a number of ways to show a single stat. 

    For example, here's a screenlet that show the value for Overdue Invoices:

    This is doable via customization.

    I tried to reply with a screen shot but it is not showing up in the thread.  I will try to get ahold of someone to see if we can get that feature flag turned on for us.

    Thank you

    Ah! Sorry, my screenshot didn't show either! 

    (My reply didn't show up immediately so I didn't notice it.)
