Type Dashboard

Type dashboard shows all the data related to an ItemType in the form of table and report controls. You can have a table show list of items with pre-applied filter. You can also have reports generated based on that ItemType.

Table Control:

When you add table control to TypeDashboard, its DataSource is set by default with the context ItemType. You can define filter based on the properties to show specific items of interest. As an admin you can enforce the filter, in that case end-user can see the applied filter on the table but can’t change the filter criteria. If enforce filter is not set, end-user can change the filter criteria at the runtime.

Table control can be shown in the Dashboard in read-only or edit mode by setting the read-only flag. If read-only flag is set to true, end-user can see the data in read-only mode. If the flag is set to false, end-user can edit the item data (inline editing) within the table and save the changes in the bulk without accessing item details page.

You can set Access to a specific role(identity) for entire table or individual columns of table. You can define conditional formatting and computed values on individual columns to highlight certain items.

Worksheet Control:

When you add worksheet control to TypeDashboard, its DataSource is set by default with the context ItemType. You can define filter based on the properties to show specific items of interest. You can set Access to a specific role(identity) for entire worksheet or individual columns of worksheet. You can define conditional formatting and computed values on individual columns to highlight certain items. The worksheet can be shown in edit or read-only mode based on the read-only flag.

Report Control:

When you add report control to TypeDashboard, you are supposed to select the QueryDefintion. QueryDefintion dropdown shows you QueryDefintions filtered based on the content ItemType. The rest of the settings on the report control works the same way as defined in the regular template.
