Example Widget Setup

- Title- This is where you can put a custom name that will display on the widget.
- Columns to Display- This will show all the columns that can be added to the widget. This includes things like property, date created, days open, and status.
- Sort By- This will be how you would like the information to display. This includes date created (oldest to newest) , days open (highest to lowest), etc.
- Number of Items- This will be the number of rows that display on the actual widget before you have to click "Show More".
- Filters- These will be important filters that every user can use to show data that is useful for them.
- When you are complete with your settings and filters make sure to click "Update" to add the widget to your dashboard. This will add the widget to the bottom of you dashboard. If you would like to edit the size or position of this widget you can follow the "Configuring Dashboard" section of this article.
Please note that every category will have it's own unique filters and settings. You can also create multiple widgets using the same category with different settings/filters.
