About Dashboard

The Dashboard provides visual feedback showing whether your Sage 100 Contractor system is configured using the recommended settings and is operating satisfactorily.

Note: The Dashboard was not designed as a sophisticated performance analyzer, but to provide a quick "health check" on your system.

Status indicators

Each of the following factors contributes to the efficient operation of your system:

• Computer's Power Plan
• Database Usage
• SQL Memory Allocation
• Disk Performance
• Network Configuration

The Dashboard's "traffic lights" provide visual cues about the status of each factor:

Status	Condition of your system
	Your system is using the recommended settings and is operating as expected.
	There is a potential problem that you should investigate.
	There is a serious problem that needs your attention.

When viewing the Dashboard, you can:

• Obtain additional information about a particular condition by clicking the adjacent view details link.
• Update the entire dashboard with the latest conditions—particularly after adjusting these settings—by clicking [Refresh].
