This procedure explains how to provide default dashboards in ARIS.
For demonstration purposes, you can display demo dashboards that are available in the United Motor Group demo database.
Prerequisites
Your ARIS server has enabled and started the dashboarding runnable (see Technical Help: ARIS server Installation - Windows, ARIS server Installation Linux, or ARIS Cloud Controller (ACC) Command-Line Tool. You can open or download documents and the Technical Help from the Documentation Web site. Documentation is also contained in the ARIS installation package that is available in the ARIS Download Center..
A valid ARIS Server Extension Pack Aware (YCSAW) license is available in ARIS Administration > User Management.
Users either need an ARIS Viewer license + ARIS Viewer Extension Pack Aware User (YCSCA) license to see dashboards or an ARIS Connect Designer Extension Pack Aware User (YCSDA) license to modify dashboards.
You have access to the downloaded ARIS installation package.
If you want use Matomo to generate dashboards based on portal usage statistics of ARIS content, additional prerequisites must be met.
Procedure
Import the default XML documents. You can either do a bulk import using a command line tool (for initial installation only) or copy the documents using WebDAV.
These documents are used by the default data feeds. This imported static content is used to generate
.If default dashboards are provided, you can use connected to the United Motor Group demo database. Demo dashboards use static data to give you an overview about the functional range of charts used in the United Motor Group demo database. Demo dashboards are for demonstration purposes only. This fictive data is stored in initially imported default XML documents. When reports update XML documents, demo dashboards are no longer provided properly because the fictive data used to generate the demo dashboards is overwritten.
You can use the demo dashboards to learn about usage and functionality of related charts (see also ARIS online help: Use ARIS > Use dashboards > Good to know).
If you use default dashboards to display own productive data, you must update the xml documents regularly by scheduled reports (see step 6). These reports are used to create and update input data used by the default data feeds to generate default dashboards. When reports update XML documents, demo dashboards are no longer provided properly because the fictive data used to generate the demo dashboards is overwritten.
Warning
Do not import default xml documents to an updated ARIS installation. Otherwise, current data will be overwritten by static demo data and dashboards will no longer display your data.
Publish the database as a process portal using the default or classic configuration set. After the XML documents were updated by the related reports, dashboards using Center of Excellence (CoE) data are only available if the published content is based on the default configuration set or a related modification set.
Create a new dashboard_viewers user group in ARIS Administration and assign all users which should see dashboards but are no Dashboard administrators. Otherwise, you must assign permissions for all dashboards and the corresponding feeds separately to every user in the data feed editor.
All default dashboards, data feeds and documents are available in ARIS.
