Analytics is a new feature. While we work on adding more features to Analytics, it will exist alongside current Reports. All features in Analytics will be available to all Organizations for 2 months, after which specific features can be accessed based on your Plan.
To enable a quick start with Analytics, the preset Dashboards available to each user resemble our current Report formats: Summary, Detailed, and Weekly.
Understanding Analytics
Analytics consists of Charts and Dashboards. Think of a Dashboard as a blank page. On this page, you can add custom Charts, that show data the way you want to.
Up to 5 charts (for free Organization) and 10 charts (for paid Organizations) can be added to each Dashboard. We also support creating 5 different types of charts. This gives you the flexibility to create custom dashboards with ease inside Track!
Dashboards and Charts can be easily updated after they are created, giving you more flexibility. Charts also give you the flexibility to add/remove columns, use more advanced grouping options and view your data the way you want to.

Table
Table Charts resemble the existing Detailed Report or Summary Report table, but you can now add/remove columns, including User Groups and Project Estimates.
Pivot Table
Similar to our Weekly Report, you can choose two Groupings to view a breakdown of data. You can adjust the way the data is displayed via the 3-dot control.
Bar Chart
Bar Charts require one grouping be selected. The colored bar shows the aplit between billable/non-billable hours, with the selected grouping displayed on the X-axis vs total time on the Y-axis.
Donut Chart
Limited to one group, similar to a Bar Chart, the Donut Chart gives you a breakdown by percentage for your chosen grouping.
Line Chart
Requires one date grouping and shows you a trend line based on your selected date range. This is also broken down by billable and non-billable.

Dashboards are custom views you create with your preferred Charts. Each Chart will bring in its own Date Range, but you can override this at the Dashboard level while viewing the data.
