# The Objective Dashboard

## Rolled-up view of every project under a single objective.

The Objective Dashboard aggregates every project mapped to one objective. **Access it via the Objective Dashboard Link column in the Objective Intake Sheet.**

> **If this dashboard shows the wrong data, the cause is almost always filters.** Objective dashboards are built by copying a template, and each report and chart carries both a cluster filter and an objective filter. See **Creating a New Objective and Objective Dashboard**.

### Objective Overview

- **Objective Summary**
- **Approval Report** — projects awaiting approval
- **Active Projects Report**

### Projects Overview

- **Total Projects**
- **Projects By Type** chart
- **Projects By Project Leader** chart
- **Projects By Status** chart
