The Business Rules feature is all about making our life easier! The bigger your operations get the more tasks you've got to tackle. That's why we are introducing a new feature as "Business Rules" to automate actions or filter the jobs that absolutely require your actions. To define them you can now create your own custom rules, to each phase of the job.
The Smart Dashboard has been introduced to help teams to improve efficiency. Once you have defined the Business Rules in settings, all the jobs that require reminders will be populated to the Smart Dashboard. The Smart Dashboard filters jobs that require your attention to proceed. What’s bets here, is that you’re in total control of what is displayed. The below image is the default view of the Dashboard.
You can switch between the list view and the grid view by selecting the options under 'view'.
Once you set the business rules, all the jobs that match the respective criteria will be listed here. The following table shows the types of jobs that can be called on to the Smart Dashboard through creating business rules.
