The Rational Team Concert (RTC) web client is typically used by team members working with project plans, work items as well as those stakeholders who primarily consume reports.

A dashboard is a web client component intended to provide information about the project status at a glance. It provides the option to drill down to get more complete information. It also represents the integration point for the data provided by all Jazz components.

Dashboards can be used in a variety of ways:

• Project leads can track project health and trends.
• Teams can discuss status using the dashboard as the data source.
• Developers can create personal dashboards that show information about the work items assigned to them.
