Management Dashboard

The Management Dashboard is a consolidated-view screen that gathers, on a single page, ACCELERO's main operational indicators in charts. It offers a quick reading of the volume of accesses, the distribution of people by area, and the events that occurred in the system.

Do not confuse it with the native Dashboard

This page describes the Management Dashboard plugin. ACCELERO also has a native Dashboard, which ships with the product and provides a different screen and different charts. They are distinct resources and can coexist.

Availability

This resource is provided as a plugin (management_dashboard) and must be installed and enabled by the IONGRADE technical team. Consult support to check compatibility with your version of ACCELERO.

Compatibility

Current plugin version: 0.0.1 — compatible with ACCELERO 2.16.0 or higher.

What the plugin does​

With the plugin active, a new menu item Management Dashboard gives access to a page with three charts that summarize the operation:

IndicatorWhat it shows
Number of accessesTotal confirmed accesses per day in the last 7 days, separating visitors from non-visitors
Number of peopleDistribution of registered people by area, separating visitors from non-visitors
Events occurredDaily evolution of failure or denial events (for example, denied accesses), by type, in the last 7 days
Main benefit

Gathers, on a single screen, indicators that would normally require several reports — useful for a quick reading of day-to-day operation.

Access​

Navigation path: side menu > Management Dashboard

The menu item uses the pie chart icon and opens the page with the title Management Dashboards.

Charts​

Number of accesses (in the last 7 days)​

Stacked bar chart with the total of confirmed accesses per day in the last 7 days.

  • Each bar represents a day with accesses. Days without any access do not appear in the chart.
  • Dates are shown in the yyyy-mm-dd format, from the most recent (on the left) to the oldest.
  • The bar is divided into two series: Visitors and Non-Visitors.
  • Considers only the logs of actually completed passage (confirmed access).

Number of people​

Stacked bar chart with the distribution of registered people by current area.

  • Each bar represents an area.
  • The bar is divided into two series: Visitors and Non-Visitors.

Events occurred (in the last 7 days)​

Line chart with the number of events that occurred per day, in the last 7 days, grouped by event type.

  • The horizontal axis represents the Days and the vertical axis the Number of events occurred. As in the accesses chart, only days with records appear, from the most recent to the oldest.
  • Each line corresponds to an event type. Line colors are randomly picked each time the page loads.
  • Considers only failure or denial event types, such as accesses denied by the server and accesses not completed. Completed passages and authorized accesses are not included in this chart.

Fixed 7-day period

The Number of accesses and Events occurred charts consider, in this version, a fixed period of the last 7 days. The screen does not offer configurable date filters.

Best practices​

  • Use it as a daily reading: the panel is a quick way to track the volume of accesses and events without opening detailed reports.
  • Cross-reference with the reports: for deeper analyses (filters by period, area, or person), use ACCELERO's Reports.

Troubleshooting​

The charts appear empty​

Possible causes:

  • There were no accesses or events in the period of the last 7 days.
  • No registered person with a defined current area (people chart).

Solution:

  1. Confirm that there is recent activity in Logs and Monitoring.
  2. Check that people have a current area assigned in the People registration.

The menu item does not appear​

Possible causes:

  • Plugin not enabled.

Solution:

  1. Confirm with IONGRADE support whether the management_dashboard plugin is installed and active.

Integration with other modules​

People and Areas​

The Number of people chart uses the People registration and each person's current Area to build the distribution.

Logs and Events​

The Number of accesses and Events occurred charts are fed by the records of Logs and Monitoring — confirmed accesses and event types that occurred.

Next Steps​

  • Reports — Detailed analyses with period and entity filters
  • Logs and Monitoring — Understand the events that feed the charts
  • People — Registration that originates the distribution chart
  • Areas — Areas used in the distribution of people
