The administrator can also view others' dashboards and modify the users' editing permissions. System dashboards can be edited, created, viewed and deleted just as user and group dashboards. --- ## User Dashboards The **Users** tab in **Dashboards** allows creating, editing, and deleting dashboards for individuals rather than groups. A user must be first created through the **Admin** tile before a dashboard can be created for him or her. A search, located at the top left, enables easy lookup of a user. --- ![](https://cdn.document360.io/5bf5f14a-9e3f-48aa-a2b9-2be6d9100091/Images/Documentation/user-dashboard-create.png)Click on image to zoom ![](https://cdn.document360.io/5bf5f14a-9e3f-48aa-a2b9-2be6d9100091/Images/Documentation/user-dashboard-create-step-7.png)Click on image to zoom ### Creating User Dashboards 1.

However, it is important to note that editing permissions for users cannot be changed on a system dashboard—only the administrator may edit a system dashboard. When adding tiles, the tiles are not filtered to the permissions of the average user. This means some tiles, like Admin, are options for a user to add; however, the user will see an error if he or she does not have privileges to use that tile. If these tiles are not included on the system dashboard, the users do not have access to the tiles, but administrators have access to them when creating their own dashboards. Only one system dashboard may exist at a time for each provider. If tiles are not configured correctly and an error badge occurs on them, the tiles do not appear for the users. Administrators can still configure the tiles in through Dashboards pages of the Admin screens.
