In today’s competitive world, it’s essential for businesses to track financial key performance indicators (KPIs) in real-time and make strategic decisions based on hard data. This is where financial dashboards come in handy. In fact, financial dashboards play a crucial role in the success of any business. If you’re looking for an efficient tool to build financial dashboards for your organization, you need FusionCharts. In this article, we’ll introduce some of the key financial dashboards offered by FusionCharts and show you why FusionCharts is the best option for creating your next
dashboards. But first, let’s discuss what exactly a financial dashboard is.
What is a Financial Dashboard?
A financial dashboard provides a visual representation of financial data in the form of graphs and charts. This means you can use financial dashboards to track and analyze the financial KPIs of an organization in real-time. Because of this, dashboards help CEOs and managers gain valuable insights into their businesses. Financial dashboards also help businesses understand long-term trends. Managers can then make decisions to meet and exceed financial goals. All in all, financial dashboards provide a comprehensive view of valuable data from an organization’s different departments such as accounting, marketing, sales, and human resources. However, creating a good financial dashboard involves several factors. Firstly, a financial dashboard should be visually appealing and easy to understand and interpret. Secondly, it should be customizable – you should be able to add titles, labels, axes, and annotations. Lastly, financial dashboards should have real-time data visualizations. FusionCharts is a beautiful data visualization library that offers all these features as well as many other useful features to make your financial dashboard even better.
What are the Key Components of the Financial Dashboard?
A financial dashboard should have visual representations of all the financial KPIs. To make your dashboard even better, you can create a separate chart or graph for each key parameter and place the related metrics in different charts next to each other. However, you should place all the parameters that you want to compare on the same chart. Additionally, it’s best to add important summaries and aggregate values at the top. Not to mention, you should ensure key parameters such as net profit or sales are prominent on the dashboard. FusionCharts lets you create clean and meaningful financial dashboards quickly and allows you to define more than one data source for your dashboard. Because of this, dashboards built with FusionCharts are easy to understand and well-designed.
