Dashboard Overview
The Otesse admin dashboard is the command center for your entire operation. It uses a workspace-based tab system that lets you have multiple views open simultaneously, similar to a modern code editor.
Layout
The dashboard consists of three main areas:
Left Navigation
The left sidebar organizes your tools into modules:
- CRM — Customer relationship management, bookings, and calendar
- Industries — Service configuration (cleaning, junk removal, carpet cleaning)
- Zones — Geographic service area management
- Workflows — Automated processes, templates, and content builders
- Settings — Company configuration, users, roles, and integrations
Workspace Area
The main content area uses a tabbed interface. Each entity you open (a customer record, a booking, a zone) opens in its own tab. You can:
- Have multiple tabs open simultaneously
- Drag tabs to reorder them
- Close tabs individually or in bulk
- Right-click for tab actions (close others, close all to the right)
Drawer Panel
When you click into a specific record (e.g., a booking on the calendar), it opens in a slide-out drawer on the right side. The drawer supports:
- Preview mode (read-only quick view)
- Edit mode (full form with save/cancel)
- Resizable width (drag the left edge)
- Non-blocking mode (interact with content behind the drawer)
Modules Overview
| Module | Purpose | Key Features |
|---|---|---|
| CRM | Manage customers, bookings, and schedule | Calendar view, lead pipeline, contact management |

| Zones | Define service areas | Map-based coverage, postal codes, zone pricing |
| Workflows | Automate operations | Email/SMS templates, automation rules |

Quick Actions
The top navigation bar provides quick actions accessible from any screen:
- Search — Global search across all entities (customers, bookings, invoices)
- Notifications — Bell icon with unread count
- Create — Quick-create buttons for common entities (new booking, new customer, new invoice)
