# Dashboard

![](https://www.ibe.net/wp-content/uploads/Landing_Dashboard-1024x482.png)

The **Dashboard** is the first screen you see when you log in to the system. It is also called the **Landing Dashboard**. By default, this dashboard opens automatically, but you can set any other activity as your preferred start page if desired.

The dashboard is designed to give you a quick overview of your work and easy access to common actions. It is divided into **three columns**:

### Quick Shortcuts

This column provides shortcuts so you can quickly create new entries. Clicking on any shortcut opens the respective **Create Page** in a new window:

- **User Details**
- **Timesheet**
- **Time-off**
- **Expense**

### User Data

This section displays your personal data and pending items to help you stay on top of your tasks:

- **Pending Actions** – Items waiting for your response. Usually takes you to your [**Inbox** & **Approval Application**.](https://www.ibe.net/docs/responding-to-approval-workflow-messages/)
- **Open Tasks** – Navigates to **My Tasks**, showing tasks where you are assigned as a resource.
- **Leaves This Month** – Lists the leave requests you have submitted for the current month.
- **Unsubmitted Expenses** – Expenses created but not yet submitted.
- **Unsubmitted Hours This Month** – Hours logged in your timesheet but still pending submission.
- **Hours Booked for Current Period** – Total hours you’ve logged in the current company-defined period.
- **People on Leave Today** – Number of colleagues absent today.
- **Next Public Holiday** – Shows the upcoming public holiday from the holiday calendar. Depending on system settings, you may be able to log hours and submit timesheets for this date.

### KPI & Graphs

The third column displays **Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)** using visual graphs:

- **Task Due Date Graph** – Shows the number of days left until a task’s due date. You can double-click a task in this chart to open it in a new page.
- **Task Completion Donut Chart** – Displays the ratio of **Unstarted Tasks** to **Completed Tasks**, helping you track your progress at a glance.
