# Home overview

The Dashboard brings project status, reporting, and operational areas into one workspace. Use it to review the work available to your account, then open the dedicated area for orders, delivery, stores, users, marketing, reports, settings, or products.

> **Availability**
>
> Sign in with an eligible Dashboard account. Delivery-only, profile-only, and read-only account types are routed to other pages. **More Services** is administrator-only, and **Visit my Website** is hidden from business-owner accounts.

## Open Home and review the project status

Select **Home** in the Dashboard sidebar. The page shows either a setup message or the current project status. Eligible accounts can also see **Visit my Website**, which opens the preferred customer-facing site in a new tab.

[![Home page with project status and Visit My Website](https://docs.ordering.co/assets/images/home-welcome-ea357479885e888214b1571cd04c84eb.jpg)](https://docs.ordering.co/assets/files/home-welcome-ea357479885e888214b1571cd04c84eb.jpg)

The status, greeting, and available buttons depend on the signed-in account and current project. Use **Visit my Website** only when you intend to leave the Dashboard.

## Read the Home report summary

Home can show quick reports for sales, current-day orders, current-day sales, and current-month sales. **See more reports** opens business analytics, whose access and filters are evaluated separately.

[![Home report summary](https://docs.ordering.co/assets/images/home-report-summary-3570fce6e6e01c0c895d42796d4110e0.jpg)](https://docs.ordering.co/assets/files/home-report-summary-3570fce6e6e01c0c895d42796d4110e0.jpg)

The summary requests order and sales reports for today and the current month. A visible value reflects the response available to the Dashboard; a zero or empty result can reflect no matching values for the project’s local date, loading, or a request error. Use a detailed report when you need its own filters and access rules.

## Navigate the Dashboard

The Dashboard sidebar groups the main operational areas. The exact entries, controls, and data depend on your project configuration and permissions.

### Additional sidebar areas

- **Multilanguage** lets you select from the languages available to the project. Ask an administrator about a language that is not available.
- **Settings** controls configuration for internal and customer-facing operations. Use the relevant settings guide before saving a change.
- **My products** lists the apps and products enabled for the project.
- **Support** opens the available support path for the account.
- **Profile** identifies the user signed in to the Dashboard.

## Practical uses

- **Monitor sales and performance:** Review daily, weekly, or monthly revenue and use detailed reports to support business decisions.
- **Manage orders and deliveries:** Review order status, delivery zones, estimated times, and driver assignments where those controls are available.
- **Customize your website:** Open the storefront from the Dashboard and update colors, logos, text, or layout through the appropriate website workflow.
- **Manage users and roles:** Create team accounts with the permissions required for their work, and control who can modify each area.
- **Run marketing activities:** Manage promotions, coupons, discounts, and approved external tools through the controls available to the project.

## Troubleshooting

### Why do I not see Visit my Website?

The button is not rendered for business-owner accounts. Confirm that you are in the intended project and signed in with the expected account type.

### Why are report values empty or zero?

The page requests today’s order and sales reports separately. A zero can mean that the response contained no matching values for the Dashboard’s local date. An unavailable value can also reflect loading or a request error. Confirm the project and your access before relying on the summary.

### Why do I not see More Services?

This section is shown only to administrator-level users.

Understanding the Dashboard layout helps you move from the Home overview to the correct operational area while keeping project access and permissions in view.
