Dashboard Overview
An overview of Monument's customisable dashboard — widgets, layout, and what you can track.
Overview
The Dashboard is your home screen in Monument. It shows a personalised overview of your work using widgets — configurable tiles that display key metrics, charts, and lists. Each user can customise their own dashboard layout.
Widget Categories
Monument provides 24+ widgets organised by category:
Financial Widgets
- Revenue Summary — total revenue across projects
- Profit & Loss — revenue minus costs with margin percentage
- Outstanding Invoices — unpaid invoice amounts by age
- Cash Flow — projected income vs. expenses over time
- Budget vs. Actual — planned vs. real spend for selected projects
Project Widgets
- Project Status — breakdown of projects by status (active, completed, etc.)
- Project Progress — completion percentage for key projects
- Overdue Tasks — tasks past their end date
- Upcoming Milestones — milestones due in the next 30 days
Resource Widgets
- Team Utilisation — allocation percentage across the team
- Capacity Overview — available hours vs. allocated hours
- Overallocated Resources — team members booked beyond capacity
- Leave Calendar — upcoming team leave
Time Tracking Widgets
- My Timesheet — your logged hours this week
- Team Hours — total hours logged across the team
- Unbilled Time — tracked time not yet invoiced
Invoice Widgets
- Invoice Pipeline — invoices by status (draft, sent, overdue, paid)
- Aged Receivables — outstanding invoices grouped by age bracket
Layout
Widgets are arranged in a grid layout. You can:
- Add new widgets from the widget library
- Remove widgets you don't need
- Resize widgets by dragging their edges
- Rearrange widgets by dragging them to a new position
Your layout is saved per user — each team member has their own dashboard.
Start with the default dashboard and remove widgets you don't need. It's easier to subtract than build from scratch.
Date Ranges
Many widgets support configurable date ranges — this week, this month, this quarter, this financial year, or a custom range. Click the date selector on a widget to change its time period.
