The Fixed Assets Values widget consists of three drop-down lists, a grid, and a pie graph. The first drop-down list allows you to select how you want to view information (e.g., Room, Asset Account). The second drop-down list allows you to filter what displays in the grid based on a subset of the selection in the first drop-down. The third-drop down determines what information is displayed in the pie graph (broken down by the selection in the first drop-down list). For example, selecting Room in the first drop-down list and Cost in the third drop-down list causes the pie graph to display cost broken down by room. The pie graph ignores the second drop-down menu entirely.

The My Status widget allows you to select queries you can quickly access from the dashboard.
When the My Status widget is selected as one of your dashboard sections you can click the Select link to access the My Status - Selections area. You can drag items horizontally between the Available Options and Selected Options columns to select which queries you want to display. You can also drag options vertically to re-order the Selected Options column. We recommend you drag items between the columns rather than using the ">>" and "<<" buttons since those buttons move all items.
