# Use Default Dashboards and Operating Reviews

## What This Does

This guide explains how to use LoopIQ’s built-in dashboards and operating reviews to monitor software delivery, release readiness, compliance, and executive risk.

## Use the Default Dashboards

LoopIQ includes a set of default dashboards that provide a starting point for common SDLC questions.

### Overview Dashboard

Use the Overview Dashboard when you want a broad operating picture across current delivery, risk, and quality signals.

### Developer Productivity

Use Developer Productivity to review engineering flow, pull request activity, release trends, and development output patterns.

### Sprint Risk Timeline

Use Sprint Risk Timeline to understand sprint risk patterns, likely spillover, and emerging delivery constraints.

### Team Risk Heatmap

Use Team Risk Heatmap to compare risk posture across teams in the current organization.

### Release Burndown

Use Release Burndown to review release progress for all teams in the current organization or narrow to a specific team when needed.

### Object Relationship

Use Object Relationship to inspect links across delivery objects such as work items, releases, and related records.

## Edit Built-in Dashboard Queries

For the following dashboards, authorized users can edit the underlying query behavior without replacing the dashboard:

* Overview
* Developer Productivity
* Sprint Risk Timeline
* Team Risk Heatmap
* Release Burndown

This is useful when you need to adapt built-in views for local reporting needs while keeping the overall dashboard structure.

Object Relationship remains a fixed system dashboard and is not part of the built-in query editing flow.

## Use Operating Reviews

Operating Reviews turns dashboard signals into leadership review packs.

Typical review packs include:

* Release Readiness Control Tower
* Compliance and Evidence Review
* Engineering Health Review
* Executive Portfolio Review

Each review pack is designed to help answer:

* what is off track
* what changed
* who is impacted
* what action should happen next

## Export Review Packs

Operating Reviews can produce executive-ready outputs such as:

* copied executive summaries
* downloadable text briefs
* PDF board packs
* PPT board packs

Use these exports when preparing leadership reviews, release-readiness meetings, governance checkpoints, or board updates.

## Promote Findings into Follow-up Work

If a dashboard widget or saved chart reveals an issue:

1. Open the chart or widget action menu.
2. Choose **Promote to review artifact**.
3. Pick the appropriate review pack.
4. Add an owner, due date, and status.
5. Save the artifact so the issue can be tracked through resolution.
