Looks vs Dashboards

For instance, we want to know the Order Average Gross Revenue value for each Month this past year. Click Explore Select Order Created Year and click Filter by field







Select Order Create Date = Month Scroll down to Measure and select Average Gross Revenue



Click Run To save it as a Look, click the gear icon, and click Save, Save as Look.

Provide a Title "Average Monthly" and click Save







You have just created a Look!





Suppose you want to add the newly created Look report to an existing Dashboard.

Navigate to Folders--> My Folder and select the "Average Monthly" in the Look section

You can click Add to Dashboard or click the gear icon and select Save --> Save to existing dashboard (you can also save to a new dashboard)





In the Add to a Dashboard in this folder form select an existing dashboard:

In this example "Current Week"







Click Save to Dashboard - this tile is copied as a query tile to the existing Dashboard. That option is the most preferred choice as the Dashboard will not depend on the Look; any changes to the Look will not affect the tile in your Dashboard.



To verify that the new Look has been added to the Dashboard, navigate to Folder --> My Folders and click on the "Current View" Dashboard. You should see Average Monthly visualization display 





You've just added a Look to your existing Dashboard!
