Open the Work Order Progress dashboard
To open the dashboard:
-
Go to Dashboard.
-
Select Work order progress.
The dashboard is available only when the Work Order Progress dashboard feature is enabled for your organization.
You must also have permission to view work orders.
Understand the progress overview
At the top of the dashboard, you can see a summary of work order progress.
The overview includes:
| Progress indicator | Description |
|---|---|
| Completion rate | Shows how many work orders are completed, including the percentage of total work orders. |
| In progress | Shows how many work orders are currently in progress, including the percentage of total work orders. |
| Pending approval | Shows how many work orders are waiting for approval, including the percentage of total work orders. |
Use these indicators to quickly understand the overall status of the selected work orders.
Change the dashboard view
You can change how work order progress is displayed in the grid.
The dashboard supports two views:
| View | Description |
|---|---|
| Rows view | Shows assets as rows and work order types as columns. Use this view to review progress asset by asset. |
| Columns view | Shows work order types as rows and assets as columns. Use this view to compare progress across assets for each work order type. |
Depending on the selected view, the grid layout changes, but the same work order progress data is used.
Configure the Work Order Progress dashboard
The Work Order Progress dashboard includes additional controls for grouping, filtering, and reviewing progress.
Choose how assets are displayed
Use Asset view to display assets as either:
- Rows
- Columns
Choose the layout that makes it easiest to compare assets and work orders for the task you are reviewing.
Asset-type icons help distinguish different kinds of assets in the grid.
Group work order columns
Use Group columns by to organise the grid by:
- Work order name
- Work order type
The default grouping is Work order name.
Grouping by type is useful when several work orders use the same type and you want to compare their combined progress across assets.
Search the dashboard
Use the search field in the toolbar to narrow the dashboard to matching work orders or assets.
The search is applied automatically shortly after you stop typing.
Filter the dashboard
Open the filter panel to filter by:
- Period
- Work order status
- Work order type
- Asset type
- Work plan
- Work package
The period defaults to the current calendar year.
Active filters are displayed as chips in the toolbar. Select the remove icon on an individual chip to clear that filter, or use Clear all in the filter panel.
Show supporting information
Use Supporting data to add more context to the grid.
Available information includes:
- Priority
- Planning status
- Completed hours
- Remaining hours
- Registered hours
- Date range start
- Date range end
- Planned start date
- Planned end date
You can select several supporting fields at the same time.
Understand the KPI bar
The KPI bar summarises the current filtered results:
|
KPI |
What it shows |
|---|---|
|
Completion rate |
Completed work orders compared with the total, including a percentage |
|
In progress |
Work orders currently in progress compared with the total |
|
Pending approval |
The number of work orders awaiting approval |
|
Overdue |
The number of overdue work orders |
The overdue count is highlighted in red so delayed work can be identified quickly.
Note: The KPIs update with the dashboard filters.
Use the progress grid
The main grid shows work order progress for each asset and work order type combination.
Each cell may show:
-
A progress percentage
-
A visual progress bar
-
A date, depending on your selected display settings
-
A lock icon, if the work order cannot be edited
-
A dash, if there is no matching work order data
Cells that contain work orders can be opened. Empty cells cannot be opened.
Cell color coding
Each cell in the progress grid uses color to indicate the work order status at a glance:
| Color | Meaning | When it appears |
| 🟢 Green | Completed | All work orders in the cell are Finished or Closed |
| 🔵 Blue | In progress | At least one work order in the cell is being worked on (not finished and not in backlog) |
| ⚪ White | Not started / Empty | All work orders in the cell are in backlog with 0% progress, or no work orders exist for this combination |
Add supporting data to the grid
You can add supporting data to the grid to get more context about each work order.
Available supporting data includes:
-
Priority
-
Planning status
-
Completed hours
-
Remaining hours
-
Registered hours
-
Start date
-
End date
Use supporting data to review more than progress percentage directly from the dashboard.
Filter the dashboard
Use filters to narrow down the dashboard data.
You can filter by:
-
Period
-
Work order status
-
Work order type
-
Work plan
-
Work package
To remove all active filters, select Clear all in the filter panel.
When you change filters, the dashboard updates to show work orders that match your selected criteria.
Search the dashboard
Use the search field to find relevant work order progress data.
Search works together with your selected filters and sorting. If you cannot find the data you expect, clear the search field or remove active filters.
Sort the dashboard
Use the dashboard settings to change the sorting.
You can sort the dashboard by asset-related or work-order-related fields, depending on the selected view and available data.
When you change sorting, the dashboard reloads with the new sort order.
Update work orders from the dashboard
Users with permission to update work orders can update work order details directly from the dashboard.
To update a work order:
-
Click a populated cell in the progress grid.
-
If the cell contains multiple work orders, select the work order you want to update.
-
Update the available fields.
-
Select Save.
Depending on your permissions and the work order status, you may be able to update:
-
Progress percentage
-
Priority
-
Planning status
-
Start date
-
End date
Where available, you can also select Close work order when saving.
Open a work order from the dashboard
To open the full work order:
-
Click a populated cell in the progress grid.
-
If the cell contains multiple work orders, select the work order you want to open.
-
Select Open work order.
The work order opens in the work order modal.
Work orders pending approval
If a work order is pending approval, the dashboard shows this in the quick update panel.
The panel may also show who the approval request was sent to.
Work orders pending approval may have limited editing options, depending on your permissions and approval configuration.
Locked work orders
Some work orders may be locked.
Locked work orders are marked with a lock icon. When a work order is locked, the quick update fields are disabled.
You can still review the work order information, but you cannot update the locked fields from the dashboard.
Change pages and page size
If the dashboard contains many assets, the grid is divided into pages.
At the bottom of the grid, you can:
-
See which assets are currently shown
-
Change the number of assets shown per page
-
Move to the previous or next page
Available page sizes are:
-
10
-
25
-
50
-
100
Empty, loading, and error states
The dashboard may show different messages depending on the current state.
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| Loading | The dashboard is loading data. |
| Error | Something went wrong while loading the dashboard. Select Retry to try again. |
| Empty | No assets or work orders match the current filters, search, or selected period. |
