   * ''notificationPeriod'' the period in whole days between sendings of the report.
   * ''lastSentAt'' the date and time the report was last sent, in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ. If set to "" (blank) this will trigger the sending of the report when the time in ''notificationPeriod'' has elapsed, measured from the time the **OK** button is clicked on this window.
-===== Exporting mSupply data to the dashboard =====
-The mSupply Grafana dashboard has its own separate Postgres database to improve performance and prevent use of the dashboard slowing mSupply down. This means that the data for the dashboard must be exported from the mSupply database to the dashboard's database. You control the settings for this process by clicking on the //Export settings// tab of the window which is displayed when you click on the //Dashboard// icon on the //Admin// tab of the Navigator:

-=== Postgres server section ===
-Enter the details of the dashboard's Postgres server in here:
-  * **Server**: the URL of the server the database resides on
-  * **Port**: the port the database is being served on
-  * **User**: the username mSupply will use to login to the dashboard's database
-  * **Password**: the password ms will use ot login to the dashboard's database
-  * **Database name**: the name the dashboard's database has been given in Postgres
-Test connection button: when you have enetered all the details in this section, click on this button to test the connection to the dashboard's database. mSupply will tell you whether the connection is successful or not.
-=== Export settings section ===
-In the table select the tables in the mSupply database that you want to export to the dashboard. Care needs to be taken here; you need to choose all the tables that will provide the information you need in the dashboard but not those you do not need as this may impact on the speed of the export, and therefore how quickly your dashboard can be updated.
-Use the **All/None** checkbox to quickly check or uncheck all the tables in the list.
-The **URL** field shows you the URL that mSupply is exporting the data to.
-**Full export of Checked Tables button:** Clicking this will force mSupply to empty the dashboard database and export all the data from the selected tables to the dashboard database.
-**Run Next Scheduled Export Now button:** Clicking this will make mSupply immediately export to the dashboard database all the data that has changed in its database since the last export to the dashboard.
-When these settings have been saved, mSupply will use them to automatically export the selected data to the dashboard according to the schedule that has been set.

-August 2020:  The remaining instructions on this page are for configuring mSupply's legacy web dashboard.  This may still work, but is no longer supported as it has been superseded by the [[https://docs.msupply.foundation/en:dashboard|mSupply Grafana web dashboard]].  The instructions are left here for historic reference only.
