The reports listed in this section of the screen are created using Report Generator.

The following controls are available on positioning the mouse pointer on a row:

There are three situations linked to report dashboard visibility:

The report dashboard visibility icon () appears next to a report name: this means that the report is currently displayed on Dashboard.
With the icon not present, position the mouse pointer on a report's row and click the Make visible on Dashboard button (see the table) as it appears: as a result the report will be added to the widgets currently on display on Dashboard.
To remove the report from the widgets currently on display on Dashboard, click the icon as it sits on the row. The report will cease to be displayed on Dashboard but will remain on the list of available widgets.
