Overview

The Location Overview widget is a core tool for visualizing the readiness status of locations across your organization. It provides a snapshot of all locations, highlighting checklist completions, assignments, and readiness metrics in a tile-based interface.

This widget helps teams monitor operational readiness and ensures critical items are handled before opening or during operations.


Key Features

  • Tile-Based Visualization: Displays each location as a tile with readiness metrics, checklist information, and assignment details.

  • Color-Coded Readiness: Quickly identify locations ready for operation (green), requiring action (amber), or critical (red).

  • Customizable Layout: Configure settings to display only the data relevant to your operations.


Configuring the Location Overview

Adjusting Layout Settings

To customize how data is displayed, access the Layout Settings icon (presentation icon):

  • Fixed Box Width: Enable this to maintain consistent tile sizes across all locations.

  • Hide Assignment Information: Hide the assignments section for a cleaner view.

  • Hide Checklist Information: Exclude checklist details to focus on readiness metrics.

  • Hide Locations Ready for Operation: Focus only on locations requiring attention by hiding tiles marked as ready.

  • Assignments: Displays the number of pending assignments and their deadlines and priorities.

  • Readiness Status:

    • Green (Ready): All checklists and assignments are completed.

    • Amber (Attention Needed): Some items are pending validation.

    • Red (Critical): Immediate action is required to address overdue or incomplete items.
