The Asset Metrics dashboards enable you to monitor the volumes of assets stored and the quality of your asset metadata. These dashboards can help you understand that you have your company's assets centralized and they are ready to be found and used.

Accessing the Dashboards

These dashboards are available to those with administrator permissions and additional user groups can be given access by going [System Settings] > [Users] > [Groups] > [Edit] a group > [General Permissions] > then selecting [Access Asset Metrics]

It you have permission to see Asset Metrics, they are accessed via the settings menu in the header.

There are three dashboards for each asset type Files, Projects, and Employees. This page explains the metrics on the Employee Assets dashboard.

Refresh Frequency

The metrics on the dashboards update every 24hrs and you are able to see how long it's been since the last update at the top of the screen. In other words if you make a lot of changes to your assets in one day, you will not see the results of those changes on the dashboards until the following day.

Improving my Metrics

Every company is different so it is up to you which metrics you would like to improve. If you are not sure how to improve a certain metric, the File, Project, and Employee metric articles have explanations for each metric. Most metrics have a "?" link directly to the explanation.
