Dashboard Overview

The WoPora Dashboard is the central hub for administrators, managers, and supervisors. It surfaces real-time workforce data, alerts, and quick access to every major feature of the platform.

Accessing the Dashboard

After signing in, you are taken directly to the Dashboard at /dashboard. The sidebar on the left provides navigation to every module. The top bar shows your current organisation, notifications, and your user profile.

Dashboard Panels

Key Metrics

The top section of the Dashboard displays live metrics for your organisation:

MetricWhat it shows

Open TimesheetsTimesheets awaiting submission
Pending ApprovalsTimesheets submitted and waiting manager sign-off
Today's Roster CoveragePercentage of scheduled shifts filled
Leave RequestsRequests pending approval
Labour Cost (MTD)Month-to-date labour spend

Quick Actions

Quick-action buttons allow one-click access to the most common daily tasks:

  • Approve Timesheets --- Jump to the approval queue
  • Publish Roster --- Open the scheduler with pending draft rosters highlighted
  • Run Payroll --- Navigate to the Pay Runs page
  • View Compliance --- See any active compliance alerts

Recent Activity Feed

The activity feed shows a chronological log of significant events across your organisation: clock-ins, timesheet submissions, roster changes, and system alerts. Click any entry to jump to the relevant record.

Compliance Alerts

If any compliance issues are detected (e.g., missed breaks, unapproved overtime, award violations), they appear as highlighted cards in the compliance section. Each card shows:

  • The type of issue
  • The affected employee and period
  • A direct link to resolve it

Switching Organisations

If you manage multiple organisations, click your organisation name in the top bar and select a different one from the dropdown. All dashboard data refreshes to reflect the selected organisation.

Role-Based View

The Dashboard adapts based on your role:

  • Admin --- Full view including payroll summary, compliance signals, and org-wide metrics
  • Manager --- Team-scoped metrics: roster coverage, pending approvals, labour cost for assigned locations
  • Supervisor --- Today's roster and shift exceptions for their team
  • Accounts --- Pay run status and labour cost summary
  • Staff --- Directed to the Staff Portal instead

The left sidebar groups all features into categories. Use the collapse button («) to minimise the sidebar for more screen space.
