Overview
What are Dashboard Widgets?
Widgets are individual reports that appear in their own smaller windows, which you can create and configure under your Dashboards overview. While you can still select pre-defined widgets from a widget library, you also have the option to modify these pre-defined widgets or even create new widgets from scratch using any metric seen in Pipeline Analytics.
How do I configure Dashboard Widgets?
Please note: Dashboard Widgets are preset (i.e., not configurable) for Talent Compass Starter.
Step 1: Navigate to the widget library and choose a template (select Custom graph if you want to create a new widget from scratch)
Step 2: Modify any details you need to on the left and then click Create in the bottom right
Example Configurable Widget: “Offer rejection reasons”
Title | Offer rejection reasons |
Filtered by | Rejection type = Dropped out |
Metric | Number of candidates |
At stage | Offer |
Group by | Rejection reason |
Rollup interval | Overall |
Visualization | Horizontal bar |
Pipeline Forecasting Calculator Widget
The Pipeline Forecast Calculator allows you to easily calculate what they need throughout their funnel to get the hires you need. Anyone who has Pipeline Analytics enabled can access the Forecasting Calculator. While it can be accessed in Pipeline Analytics, it can also be accessed in Dashboards.
How can I access the Forecasting Calculator in Dashboards?
- Create a Total hires widget (if you don’t have one already)
- Add Total hires targets (if they aren’t added already)
- The Forecasting Calculator will show up to the right of the Total hires widget
How does the Forecast Calculator work in Dashboards?
Please note: Pipeline Forecasting is available for Talent Compass Advanced only
Click on “Open Forecast Calculator” and you’ll see this:
