Understand Dashboard and Sales Overview totals

  1. Open the workspace

    In JobBuddy, go to My Work → Dashboard (#/); Sales → Sales Overview (#/sales); optional Business Dashboard route #/business-dashboard where enabled.

  2. Confirm access and starting state

    Access to each widget/source record; Accounting Admin for Sales Overview; configured dashboard/start page.

  3. Complete the main setup

    Review visible Dashboard and Sales Overview widgets, their date and status context, permission-filtered population, click-through source list, and refresh timing.

  4. Review the important choices

    Reconcile important totals with source records.

  5. Verify the result

    Interpret operational and sales widgets using the correct permissions, statuses, and date context.

    Expected result: Interpret operational and sales widgets using the correct permissions, statuses, and date context.

Troubleshooting

The page, control, or action is unavailable.

Confirm the required access and starting state: Access to each widget/source record; Accounting Admin for Sales Overview; configured dashboard/start page.

The result is incomplete or unexpected.

Widgets use different status/date definitions and permission-filtered populations; operational dashboards, saved custom reports, and financial ledgers are not interchangeable.

The issue remains after checking the record.

Capture the exact visible error, record status, approximate time, and intended result. Give support only the minimum customer-safe evidence needed to trace the problem.
