Dashboards
The Dashboard is the array of information presented to you when you log in to FOIAXpress. Multiple dashboards are configured in the system to display specific information targeted at different types of users.
Dashboards are assigned to you by Administrators. However, if you are assigned multiple dashboards, you can switch between these from the Home Page.
With the drop-down menu highlighted in the sample image, you can choose between any of the dashboards assigned to you.
