What is a label panel?

The label panel allows you to add labels, the current date and time and images, such as your company logo, to your display boards.

The following example shows how label panels - highlighted in red - look on a display board. A large label panel, All Telesales, is shown at the top of the screen, followed by two smaller label panels Best Performers and Summary Stats, describing the sections below them. Two other label panels were used to add a company logo, at the top-left of the page and the current date and time, at the top-right of the page.

There is no limit to the number of label panels you can use on a display board.
