A dashboard is a web interface for users that organizes and presents information in a way that is easy to read and interpret. Dashboards are meant to provide visibility into key performance indicators (KPIs) – through simple visual graphics such as gauges, charts and tables within a web browser – of information most important to the institution. The information is intended to be simple to monitor at a glance and, where appropriate, actionable. Ultimately, dashboards are created to provide a unique and powerful means to present information about any range of topics. In many respects, a reporting dashboard can be likened to a dashboard in an automobile. It provides an 'at-a-glance view' of the current operational state of the vehicle.

Access to ASU Dashboards
Due to the sensitive nature of some of the data contained within ASU dashboards, an ASURITE ID is required to view them. Dashboards that you do not have access to until you login will have a symbol displayed next to them. Once you are logged in, you may still need to request access to those dashboards depending on your affiliation.
You can request access by clicking on the Request Access link on the black bar at the top. Access is granted by the data trustees based on your affiliation with the institution.
