Required configuration in IWMS and Cobundu Studio for optimal use of the dashboards: Dashboards IWMS & Studio Setup.pptx
A general introduction to the Dashboards has been presented during the Cobundu Summer 2021 Sessions, this is the recording: Summer 2021 Session: Dashboards
Frequently Asked Questions on Dashboards
Remember that we're using Qlik, a 3rd party application, and are unfortunately also bound to their limitations.

Make sure that the Display resolution is recommended for the used screen size and that the scale is set to 100% - then dashboard features like the Average Occupancy Per Hour Grid should come up nicely, also when making the browser a bit smaller than full screen.

The "hour/day chart" or "Average occupancy per hour" visualization is what is called a “tabbed container” (a widget nesting several charts). Tabbed containers cannot be exported as such, but you can export the individual charts. Right click on a chart to get the export option

When exporting the data of the floorplan, it lists the location ID but not the location reference. This makes it very difficult to interpret in the export. The room_name is used as “tooltip” on the floorplan that shows when you hover over it. Within Cobundu, we need the room_id as a dimension to keep the relation between the polygon and the room data. The export from the floorplan therefore has this room_id and not the room_name which is only a display parameter. As a workaround, there is a spaces table in the Scope & Capacities sheet which you can export, and that maps the location id with reference and other paramameters. |

This is currently not possible because we are embedding Qlik Sense dashboards in the product portal, where the designer menu is deactivated. We have investigated turning this menu on depending on specific roles & rights, but there is a certain security breach as end-users could access our Qlik backend hub that has all tenant streams … so currently this is not possible. |
Valid for ALL sensors: for the sensors to eventually turn up in the dashboards, the sensors need to be triggered. It's up to the IC to judge, depending on the customer situation (activity going on or not), if all sensors need to be triggered upon installation, or if it will be done by end users.
- Remember that if none of the sensors linked to a specific department/zone are triggered, the department/zone will not show up in the dashboard. On the other hand: not triggered sensors generally means that zone is not used.

Time Zones
Time Zone settings for sensors are required for all tenants; the system will however try to determine it depending system settings either from IWMS or from Cobundu by means of a waterfall system, if one is detected it exit’s and uses that setting (ignoring the rest).
Using the wrong setting will result in offset in the week overview. Changing the time zone will not recursively correct earlier sensor recordings, this needs then to be manually triggered by the Cobundu team.

After reading this article, you’ll be able to:
Get a high-level understanding of Workplace Dashboards
Dashboards
Imagine having a magic window that gives you a complete picture of how a building operates. That's precisely what the dashboards provide us with at Spacewell. They offer a comprehensive view of crucial details regarding building functionality, such as occupancy levels in various rooms, identifying maintenance needs, and ensuring the happiness of everyone within.
With these dashboards, we enhance building performance. They act as a portal to all the information we require, facilitating better space utilization, proactive maintenance scheduling, and ensuring the comfort and satisfaction of building occupants.
The dashboards serve as our guide to optimizing building operations, ensuring efficiency, and creating a pleasant environment.
Sheets
Each dashboard can have different sheets. Each one zooms more into the details of the available data.
Summary sheet
Goal: Get high-level insight into occupancy and utilization of the complete organization
Focus on Averages, main KPIs, simple graphs, and main trending.
This dashboard is easy to use and will give you a high level idea on how well the different space types are being used.
Overview sheet
Goal: Get basic insight into occupancy and utilization of several levels of the organization via filtering functionalities and interactive floor plans
Focus on Extended filtering, Floor plans, averages, main KPIs, simple graphs, and main trending.
This dashboard is easy to understand, has filter functionalities and floor plans, and gives you a basic idea of how well the different space types perform.
Analysis sheet
Goal: Getting in depth analytics of occupancy and utilization of all different space types.
Focus on: Extended filtering, Max/Min/spread, multi-dimensional graphs, mappings, detailed trending.
This dashboard has several complex graphs but gives in-depth information about how the different spaces are occupied and utilized. These graphs also will give you insight into potential future space improvements.
