Caseload Dashboard

A detailed guide to using the caseload monitoring dashboard to understand your organization's workload distribution.

The caseload dashboard provides a comprehensive view of how work is distributed across your organization. This guide walks through each section and explains how to use it effectively.

Accessing the Dashboard

Navigate to Monitoring in the sidebar to access the caseload dashboard.

The dashboard loads with your current caseload data. If you see a message about no data, check that your data source is connected and synced.

Dashboard Layout

The dashboard is organized into several sections:

Summary Cards

At the top, you'll see quick metrics:

Total Clients The total number of clients across all team caseloads.

  • Watch for unexpected changes
  • Compare to your expected count

Total Teams The number of team caseloads included in the view.

  • Should match your current team structure
  • Excludes inactive teams

Average Caseload Mean number of clients per team.

  • Quick indicator of typical team workload
  • Compare to your target caseload size

Balance Score A measure of how evenly work is distributed across teams.

  • Lower is better (more balanced)
  • Watch for trends over time

Interactive Map

The main map shows aggregate metrics by geographic area:

Geographic Areas Each area represents a postal code or service zone.

  • Color indicates assigned team caseload
  • Click to see aggregate metrics for the area
  • Hover for quick summary (client count, visit hours, etc.)

Territory Visualization Optional overlays show:

  • Region boundaries
  • Team caseload territories
  • Coverage areas

Team Caseload Table

A sortable table with details for each team caseload:

ColumnWhat It Shows
TeamTeam caseload name (click for details)
Client CountNumber of clients in the territory
Worker CountNumber of workers assigned to the team
Visit HoursTotal visit hours for the territory
UtilizationPercentage of capacity used

Sort by any column to identify:

  • Overloaded teams (high utilization)
  • Underutilized teams (low utilization)
  • Imbalanced distribution

Distribution Chart

A visual representation of caseload distribution:

Histogram View Shows how caseloads are distributed across the team.

  • Tall bars at extremes indicate imbalance
  • Even distribution creates a bell curve

Box Plot View Alternative visualization showing:

  • Median caseload
  • Quartile ranges
  • Outliers

Using the Map

Zoom Use scroll wheel or zoom buttons to adjust view level.

  • Zoom in for detail in dense areas
  • Zoom out for overall picture

Pan Click and drag to move the map view.

  • Center on specific areas of interest
  • Explore different regions

Viewing Modes

By Team Caseload Default view showing assignments by team color.

  • Quickly see each team's territory
  • Identify overlap and gaps

By Region View organized by geographic regions.

  • Useful for regional analysis
  • Compare regions side by side

Heat Map Density visualization showing concentration.

  • Bright areas = high client density
  • Helps identify coverage patterns

Interacting with the Map

Common Tasks

Checking Workload Balance

  1. Look at the summary cards for overall balance
  2. Review the distribution chart for patterns
  3. Sort the employee table by utilization
  4. Identify anyone significantly over or under capacity

Finding Geographic Issues

  1. View the map in "By Team Caseload" mode
  2. Look for teams with scattered geographic areas
  3. Identify overlapping territories
  4. Note gaps in coverage

Preparing for Optimization

  1. Verify data freshness (check last sync time)
  2. Review current balance metrics
  3. Identify specific problem areas
  4. Note any constraints or special cases

Monitoring After Changes

  1. Compare current state to previous
  2. Verify expected improvements materialized
  3. Check for any unintended consequences
  4. Document the before/after metrics

Troubleshooting

Dashboard Shows No Data

Check that:

  • Your data source is connected
  • At least one region is selected
  • You have permission to view the data

Map Markers Not Loading

Try:

  • Refreshing the page
  • Checking your internet connection
  • Reducing the scope (fewer clients)

Metrics Seem Wrong

Verify:

  • Data source is recently synced
  • Filters aren't hiding data
  • Employee capacity is set correctly
