Understanding the Dashboard page

After logging in to Veritas Surveillance, your dashboard appears by default. If not, you can view it by clicking the Dashboard tab. The dashboard page lets you view the status of department reviews, escalations, and tasks. Aggregated statistics are used to report the status of these items.

1. Left navigation pane

The left pane provides a navigational menu. When you click on an item in this menu, the corresponding view appears in the right pane. The availability of these menu items and the corresponding views depend on the roles that are assigned to the signed-in user. Therefore, if you are a reviewer, some of these tabs may not be visible, depending on the permissions that your administrator has assigned to you.

You can click the >> icon to expand and the << icon to collapse the navigation banner.
