Understanding Dashboard KPIs

At the top of your dashboard, you’ll find four KPI boxes. These give you a real-time summary of your compliance setup — all in one view.

The dashboard's KPI section displays four boxes, each showing a live metric from one of the platform's core compliance modules. Click any box to navigate directly to the underlying data for more detail.

The Four KPI Boxes

Processing Activities: Total number of registered processing activities (RoPA items)

Assets: Number of mapped assets or applications

Vendors: Number of vendors or processors managed

Tasks: Number of currently active and completed tasks

These numbers reflect the current state of your compliance program and update in real time as you add or modify records.

What Do the Numbers Mean?

Each KPI is live and updates automatically:

  • Adding a new processing activity increases the “Processing Activities” count
  • Adding or completing a task updates the number under “Tasks”
  • Creating a new vendor updates the “Vendors” KPI

Use these figures to track your compliance progress over time or share a status update with management. You can also download a Compliance Report directly from the dashboard for formal reporting.

Navigating from the KPI Boxes

Clicking any of the four boxes will take you directly to:

  • The processing activity list
  • The asset inventory
  • The vendor overview
  • The task management module
