Data Grids

Many of SmarterU's dashboards use grids to display records. For example the Groups Dashboard displays the groups in your account.

Each grid consists of rows and columns. The first row displays headings that identify the contents of the column. In some cases, there may be a secondary heading when the column contains a subset of records. For example, the Enrollments column in the Groups Dashboard has a secondary heading for each enrollment status (i.e., Active, Warn, ODue, Cmpl). 

In some cases, you can click the data in the grid to drill down and view more information about the data. Refer to the specific dashboard pages for details.

Page Controls

The controls for scrolling through the data are located below the grid.
