Changing dashboard and report default settings

You can modify several dashboard and report settings in the hbd.properties file. The file is located in the AO_HOME/tomcat/webapps/baodashboard/WEB-INF/classes directory. 

This page describes the settings you can change.

• Dashboard refresh frequency
• Currency symbol
• Minimum and maximum values for Process Metrics reports

To change default settings

1. Navigate to the AO_HOME/tomcat/webapps/baodashboard/WEB-INF/classes directory (where AO_HOME is the dashboard installation location). 
2. Edit the hbd.properties file.
3. Make your changes as described in this page.
4. Save the file.
5. Restart the dashboard service.

Dashboard refresh frequency

The default dashboard refresh frequency is 5 minutes.

To change the refresh frequency

1. In the hdb.properties file, look for the following line:refreshFreq=5
2. Replace 5 with the new refresh frequency value.
   For example, to refresh every 30 minutes, the line will look like the following:
   refreshFreq=30

Currency symbol

The default currency symbol is $. Specify only one currency symbol. If you include multiple currency symbols, only the last symbol is used in reports.

To specify the currency symbol

1. In the hbd.properties file, look for the following line:
   currency.symbol=$
2. Replace $ with the new symbol.
   For example, to change the currency symbol to EUR, the line will look like the following:
   currency.symbol=EUR

Minimum and maximum values for Process Metrics reports

When creating reports, the default minimum value is 0 and the default maximum value is 1,000,000.

To change minimum and maximum values

1. To specify the minimum currency value, do the following:
   1. In the hbd.properties file, locate the following line:
      min=0.0 
   2. Replace 0.0 with the new minimum value.
      For example, to change the minimum value to 2, the line will look like the following:
      min=2.0
2. To specify the maximum currency value, do the following:
   1. In the hbd.properties file, locate the following line:
      max=1000000.0 
   2. Replace 1000000.0 with the new maximum value.
      For example, to change the maximum value to 200, the line will look like the following:
      max=200.0
