Analytics - Settings

Learn how to assign default dashboards to different areas of Sharper MMS — the outlet home screen, Analytics section, POS terminals, and Accounting section.

Updated this week

Analytics Settings let you assign a default dashboard to four different areas of Sharper. Each area then opens to the assigned dashboard automatically, so staff do not need to navigate and select one manually.

Note: If you can view dashboards but cannot save Analytics Settings, your user role does not include dashboard management access. An administrator can enable this by going to System Settings > Roles, editing your role, enabling the Analytics toggle in the Accessibility section, and turning on the dashboard management permissions in the Analytics tab.

Accessing Analytics Settings

  1. Select Analytics in the left navigation pane.

  2. Select Settings.

Dashboard Assignment Fields

Where It Appears

Outlet Dashboard

Shown on the outlet home screen when staff first log in or navigate to the outlet overview

Analytics Dashboard

Shown when navigating to the Analytics section of the sidebar

POS Dashboard

Shown on Point of Sale terminal screens

Accounting Dashboard

Shown within the Accounting section

Each field is a dropdown listing all dashboards that have been created. Select the dashboard you want to appear by default in each area, then select Save.

Note: Only dashboards that have already been created will appear in these dropdowns. If a dashboard you want to assign is not listed, go to Analytics > Dashboards and create it first.

Leaving a Section Unassigned

If you leave one of the four fields blank, that area of Sharper will not display a dashboard by default. Staff can still navigate to Analytics > Dashboards and open a dashboard manually at any time.

Changing the Default Dashboard

You can update the assigned dashboard for any area at any time:

  1. Go to Analytics > Settings.

  2. Select a different dashboard from the dropdown.

  3. Select Save.

The change takes effect immediately for all users on their next page load.
