The Brightflag Spend Overview Dashboard provides you with real-time insights into your legal spend. You will have access to this page if you are an administrator, overview user, or department overview user. The spend amount you see will also depend on the matters or departments you have access to. Please note that the spend overview dashboard totals pending and approved invoice amounts.
To navigate the spend overview dashboard:

- Click Show More to see more values in a tile.
- Click on a value (e.g. a firm's name) to view all of the matters and spend from that firm.
- Export the data on this page by clicking the Print button in the top right corner of your screen.
- Export the data from a specific tile by clicking the Print button beside the tile name.
- Your highest value matters at the bottom of your dashboard page. Click on Show 5 more to view the next 5 highest value matters.
