The KiteSuite Dashboard provides a visual overview of key project aspects, including project initiation details, sprint counts, task completion statuses, and overall project progress. It features graphs for tasks by priority, type, assignees, and creation date, aiding in easy analysis. The Dashboard supports different project templates (Scrum, Kanban, Business), offering insights tailored to each template type. Users can toggle and hover over graph bars for detailed information, ensuring comprehensive project management and tracking.

In this article we will discover KiteSuite Dashboard functionality in detail to easy access project information.

Overview of the Dashboard

Dashboard screen provides a comprehensive visual representation of key project facets. It includes project initiation details, creator information, total sprint count, upcoming sprints, active sprint status, and completed sprints.

Additionally, it presents an overview of the total project items, including completed and incomplete tasks. These metrics are graphically visualized, facilitating effortless project progress analysis.

Project Initiation Details

In this section you can see vital project creation information, displaying the precise date along with the name of the project creator.

Items & Sprints

The Dashboard furnishes counts for both items and sprints encompassing the project's entirety. You have the ability to view the complete count of items within the project. Furthermore, within this total, you can readily discern the number of items that have been successfully completed, as well as those that remain incomplete.

You also have the option to review the complete count of sprints, along with the number that have been finished and the count of those that are yet to come.

Overall Project Progress Graph

The graphical representation of the project's overall progress is a centerpiece of the Dashboard. Leveraging the project's status features, such as TODO, IN PROGRESS, DONE, and custom statuses, this graph provides a visual depiction of how items are distributed across different statuses.

The graph also illustrates the percentage distribution of items in each status category, affording an instant and insightful understanding of the project's advancement.

How can you read other dashboards' graphs?

The project's template type influences the remaining graphs. In KiteSuite, there are three distinct template options: Scrum, Kanban, and Business. Now, let's delve into an in-depth explanation of the graphs.

Task by Priority

This specific bar graph visually presents details about tasks organized by their levels of importance, which we call "Priority." This feature remains the same in all types of project templates.

The graph has two columns: one is colored purple and shows the total number of tasks in the project, and the other is blue, indicating the tasks that have been finished.

On the up-and-down side (vertical) of the graph, you see the count of tasks. On the left and right side (horizontal), you find different levels of priority. For example, it tells you how many tasks with 'Low' importance have been completed from the whole bunch of tasks. This helps us understand the progress of different types of tasks in the project.

Toggling Bars On and Off: You have the ability to activate or deactivate both bars by simply clicking on the highlighted badges.

After turning off both bars:-

Hover over the bar

In all the graphs, you can hover over a bar to examine its contents in detail. For example, you can refer to the following screenshot for more clarification.

Tasks by type

This specific bar graph visually presents details about tasks categorized by their importance level, referred to as "Type." This feature remains consistent exclusively within Scrum project templates.

The graph consists of two columns: one in purple representing the total number of tasks in the project, and the other in blue indicating tasks that have been completed.

On the vertical axis, you can observe the various task types. In KiteSuite, three task types are available: "Story," "Bug," and "Task."

On the horizontal axis, you can find the task count. For instance, it illustrates how many tasks categorized as 'Bug' type have been completed out of the entire set of tasks.

Top 5 Users

This specific bar graph visually presents details about tasks categorized by their assignees. This feature remains consistent across all types of project templates.

The graph consists of two bars: one in purple, representing the total number of tasks assigned to each Assignee in the project, and the other in blue, indicating tasks that have been completed.

On the vertical axis, you can find the task count depicting completed and assigned tasks.

On the horizontal axis, you can observe the User name. However, only the top 5 users are shown, based on the maximum number of assigned issues. For instance, users with a lower count of assigned tasks are not displayed in this graph.

Tasks by day

This specific bar graph visually presents details about tasks categorized by their task creation date. This feature remains consistent across all types of project templates.

The graph consists of two bars: one in purple, representing the total number of tasks created, and the other in blue, indicating tasks that have been completed.

On the vertical axis, you can find the task count depicting completed and created tasks.

On the horizontal axis, you can observe the date on which tasks were created and completed. The graph displays tasks from the last 15 days.

By clicking on the, “-” circle button you can zoom in and out of the graph.
