View the Health Dashboard in the Portfolio Tool

Objective

To view the Health Dashboard in the company's Portfolio tool. 

Background

This Portfolio tool's Health Dashboard turns individual project information into business intelligence by aggregating your company's data across project and tools—giving you a powerful snapshot of your entire portfolio's overall project health. With the Health Dashboard, users now have the capability to review simple, but effective, data visualizations that provide greater insights into how the project's across your company's entire Portfolio are performing. By examining a wide range of project data points and financial metrics, the Health Dashboard also highlights projects and issues that may need your attention.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permission:
    • To access the Portfolio tool, 'Read Only' or higher on the company's Portfolio tool.
      AND
    • To view the Health Dashboard tab in the Portfolio tool, 'Standard' or higher on the company's Reports tool.
      Notes:
      • If you are a user with 'Admin' level permission, you will be able to view all projects.
      • If you are a user with 'Standard' level permission, you will be able to view projects to which your user profile is added to the Project Directory. 
      • The 'Is an Employee of ' check box must be selected in your user profile.
    • To view the Financial Health area of the dashboard, 'Admin' permission on the company's Admin tool and 'Standard' or higher on the project's Budget tool. For more details, see Set Up a Budget View for Custom Reporting
      Notes:
      • The Financial Health area of the dashboard limits the display of data to the project budget(s) that you have permission to access.
      • For example, if you only have access permission to three (3) project budgets, the data is only for those three (3) projects. If you have access permission to all projects, it shows data for all projects. 
  • Recommendations:
    To get the most out of your Health Dashboard, it is recommended that you (or an authorized user at your company) create the following items for use with Procore:
  • Limitations:
    • Currently, the widgets in the Health Dashboard default configuration settings cannot be customised.

      • Over Under %
        Shows the percentage by which your projects are over or under the projected budget. This value is determined by taking the difference between projected budget and estimated cost at completion and dividing it by the projected budget.
