A centralized repository within Epic where users can find and manage various analytics content, such as reports, dashboards, and data extracts.
Analytics Catalog
on the UserWeb contains documentation on Epic‐released reporting content. A comprehensive guide that provides detailed information about the data structures, fields, and relationships within a database or analytics system.
Data Handbook
A visual interface that displays key metrics, data, and analytics in a consolidated and interactive format, allowing users to monitor and analyze performance at a glance.

Radar
An individual element or part of a larger system or interface, such as a widget or module within a dashboard. Components can be organized into regions.
Component
the primary interface for editing dashboards. Both users and administrators can enter the Designer UI. For existing dashboards, the Designer UI is accessed by clicking the View Manager, then editing either the Original View or a personalized view. The user interface used by administrators or developers to design and configure dashboards, reports, and other analytics content.
Designer UI
When administrators create a dashboard, it is considered a source dashboard and appears in Hyperspace as the Original View. Only administrators can edit the Original View of a source dashboard. The default or initial view of a dashboard or report before any customizations or modifications are made by the user.
Original View
also called Original View. The original dashboard from which data or components are derived or copied to create other dashboards or views.
Source Dashboard

* Add, remove, and rearrange components
* Set defaults for dashboard parameters
* Create and add a SlicerDicer component
* Personalize components
o Add, edit, rearrange, and delete links from link components
o Change the display name or display color of a component
o Add a badge to a table or graph component
o Change the thresholds on a table or graph component
Personalized View
a tool or feature within software applications that allows users to manage and organize different views or perspectives of data or content.
View Manager

Reconciliation
metadata includes the description, tags, content owner, reviewers, distribution methods, and more. A user with appropriate security can edit the metadata of Catalog content from within the Catalog.

Report Tags
a conceptual way to group data. For example, you could group your data by department, and department would be a summary level. The level of detail or aggregation at which data is summarized and presented in a report or dashboard.
Summary Level
a specific entity in a summary level. For example, you might be interested in only the data from one obstetrics department, and that department would be the summary target
Summary Target
refers to the collection of records that represent your organization’s physical and financial arrangements. Facility structure records define places where patient care happens and levels at which revenue is tracked. While every healthcare organization has a unique set of clinics, hospitals, and departments, the way your organization is structured generally follows a set hierarchy.
Facility Structure
represents your entire organization. Some settings, such as diagnosis and procedure codes, are set at the facility level. Your organization has only one facility record
Facility Record
represent distinct operational and financial divisions within your organization, each with its own set of billing tools and separate AR (accounts receivable). The number of service areas varies based on financial considerations and other factors
Service Area
sometimes called revenue locations, are subdivisions within a service area and typically represent physical locations where your organization provides patient care
Location
places where patient care takes place, such as a family medicine department, and/or administrative services are performed, such as a business office. Each department is associated with one location, and through that location with one service area.
Department
Everyone who logs in to Epic
Users
The steps that a user takes in Epic. For example, a clinician might open their schedule, review a patient’s medical history, open the patient’s chart, place an order, and sign a note. Different users have different workflows.
Workflow
is Epic’s front‐user interface, accessed on the Hyperdrive client. Users log in to Hyperspace to complete their workflows and do their jobs. Administrators also log in to Hyperspace to test and troubleshoot build.
Hyperspace
