Layouts that can be made on a set of reports controlled by a set dashboard filter right off the bat.
To make my life easier. Once upon a time, I would make abeautiful dashboard with 10 reports called "Executive View" for a Sales Team. I show that to my manager and he says, "Wow! Great! I like these reports on this dashboard, but I want this same dashboard to be filtered towards the Services team, QBR Team, and our CSM Team!"
Luckily knowing Gainsight has Dashboard level filters and all my reports all have a role filter, I did just that and showed it to may manager. He says, "FANTASTIC, but I want a separate dashboard for each type of role, but same reports". I later found out that the Dashboard filters can't be set by the admin, but by the user, however my manager wants different dashboards. I ending up making those same set of reports 5 times (5*10 reports = 50 reports)
After that ordeal, I almost quit my job (not really : D) . However, I really wish the dashboard filters can be set by the admin at the dashboard level right off the bat, so I won't have to make the same or clone 10 reports 5 times and modify the filters. Instead I would clone the dashboard 5 times and set a dashboard filter.
P.S Felt like writing a story today : )
