What is Analytics in Dashpivot?
Dashpivot Analytics allows you to visualise the data captured in your forms, without manual spreadsheets or reporting work.
As your team completes forms in the field, Dashpivot automatically updates dashboards and charts in real time, giving you visibility across individuals, teams, projects, or the entire organisation.
Analytics can be used to track:
Production and progress metrics
Compliance KPIs
Safety, quality, and environmental performance
Labour, cost, or activity trends
How Analytics is structured
Analytics in Dashpivot is organised into dashboards and charts.
You can create multiple dashboards, often grouped by function (for example: safety, production, quality, or labour).
Each dashboard can contain multiple charts, pulling data from one or more templates.
Dashboards can be created:
At a team level, showing data for a specific team folder
At a company level, aggregating data across all projects and teams
Permissions note:
To create dashboards and charts, you’ll need:
Team Controller or Project Controller permissions (for team dashboards), or
Organisation Controller permissions (for company-level dashboards)
This short overview video explains how Analytics works in Dashpivot, the different chart types available, and how dashboards update automatically as new forms are submitted.
Chart types in Dashpivot
Dashpivot includes three core chart types. Each chart can be filtered and configured to show exactly the data you need.
Quantity charts
Quantity charts track numeric values over time, such as labour hours, costs, quantities installed, or production output.
Frequency Charts
Frequency charts show how often forms are created over time. These are commonly used for:
Incident, defect, or delay tracking
Compliance KPIs (for example, inspections completed per month)
Ratio Charts
Ratio charts group forms by a chosen variable, such as workflow status, severity, list item, or form creator, allowing you to compare proportions visually.
Why Analytics matters
Dashpivot Analytics automates the work traditionally required to extract, clean, and graph data from paper forms or spreadsheets.
By capturing structured data in templates and visualising it through dashboards, teams gain:
Real-time insights
Consistent reporting across projects
Faster decision-making
Greater confidence in performance tracking
