There are two dashboard types: System and Personal.

System dashboards are visible to all users that have access to the project dashboard. Any changes made to a system dashboard will apply across the whole organization.

Personal dashboards are created by users and are only visible to them. 

An Add New Dashboard modal window will pop up. 

Fill out the fields about the new dashboard: 

• Name – Give the dashboard a name.
• Description – Add a description of the dashboard.
• Is System Dashboard – If you want the dashboard to be visible to everyone across the organization who has access rights, tick this checkbox. If you want the dashboard to be private, this checkbox must remain unticked.
