Start My DashboardFrequently asked questions
A business performance dashboard is a tool used to gauge your businesses performance and enable you, your CFO, or your board to measure, monitor, and make strategic decisions around how to manage your business to achieve business goals. The LivePlan Dashboard turns all of this into an easy-to-use graphical display that combines two important sources of data:
- Your financial forecast data (your plan)
- Your company's actual accounting data (your actual results)
There are over 40+ metrics to view in the LivePlan Dashboard, including definitions and what to look for in each metric. Top metrics are:
- Revenue
- Expenses & Cost
- Revenue Breakdown
- Expense & Cost Breakdown
- Net Profit
- Operating Income (or EBITDA)
View a full list of metrics available in the business and financial performance dashboard.
LivePlan will build your company performance dashboard automatically as part of the LivePlan Premium package. In order to see data in the financial performance dashboard though, you'll need to either connect your QuickBooks Online or Xero accounts or enter your actuals manually.
Yes, you can download & print a PDF version of the business performance dashboard. If you'd like to share it with a colleague you can also send them a guest invitation to LivePlan so they can view the dashboard directly in LivePlan.
