Lifecycle Insights has added a Headlines Feature to the vCIO dashboard. This feature was developed to give you an at-a-glance view of current and upcoming events surrounding your clients and their data quality, as well as keep you aware and ahead of important dates and data cycles that will require your attention.
Accessing the Headlines Dashboard
The Headlines Dashboard can be accessed using the Headlines icon found in the upper right corner of the dashboard. If there are new items on the Headlines Dashboard the icon will also show a green notification highlighting the number of new items on the Headlines Dashboard since it was last viewed. Hovering over the number will show a summary of the new items on the Headlines.
The Headlines Tile will appear on the right side of the dashboard. The contents of the dashboard are specific to the company that is selected in the company selection list.
