Report Charts on Dashboards

Hi Andrea 🙌

Sorry for the delay getting back here. I'm not 100% what this would look like so it would be great to get a little more detail.

From what I can tell, you'd like to add a 'Report widget' to an existing Dashboard which would contain visual charts from the Report. This way you'd have a Dashboard of visual charts and existing list of task widgets in one place.

Sorry if I've totally misunderstood your request here 😇

We have a similar use case. 

One would want the Dashboard to be where all analytics related to a project goes and right now some features are not flexible. For example, the dashboard does not allow you to visualize data based on custom workflow. The chart in the dashboard accumulates the tasks per global status-categories: Active status group, Completed status group, etc, but not the lower level categories we defined in the custom workflow and that's really what users care about. 

The report does that very well but you cannot import charts from the report to the dashboard and it seems inefficient to email the chart around. 

It would be nice to have charts in the dashboard. It could have a quick status update for upper management. We can create all of the charts in reports but you have to change reports to see each one. Being able to put them on the dashboard would allow mangers to compare multiple charts at ones and drill down to an issue by visual information rather than numerical data. 

It would also be great if we could share dashboards with collaborators. Not everyone in our organisation needs a regular user license (like management) but we would still like to share our progress on projects and tasks. 

Adding to Nick's comment above, I know you can add charts to a Dashboard via the analytics tab but the charts available is limited to that in the Analytics tab. We would like the ability to create a visual dashboard within Wrike where we can add a variety of graphs(pie, bar, etc., tables and text.)
The tables should also be able to handle calculated fields. 

Another use case - Manager wants to see meeting hours from previous week summed up in the Dashboard. For example, I can create a report and group by person with a specific date range. So, for last week, employee A had 12 hours of meetings, B had 30 hours of meetings, C had 25 hours of meetings, etc. I can add a widget to the dashboard of all the individual meeting tasks, but there isn't a quick roll up (sum) of hours spent that my manager can see at a glance. FYI, projects already exists for each person's meetings. Any help you could provide would be super helpful!

Hey everybody, thank you for all of your feedback and use cases!

I don't have an update for you at the moment, but as soon as I do, I'll let you know.
