Introduction - Overview
The dashboard Worklink opens on, and what the whole depot looks like at a glance.
The Overview is the first screen an administrator sees, and it answers one question: what needs you today. Everything on it is a widget, and every widget is a shortcut into the module that owns the data.
This is not the same screen as My Attendance
Both open on a greeting, both carry a Widgets button, and they are entirely different things. The distinction is whose day you are looking at.

The toolbar

| Refresh | Re-reads the data. The dashboard does not poll on its own. |
| Edit layout | The pencil. Puts the grid into a mode where widgets can be dragged and resized. |
