Legal Operations Dashboard (Clients)

The Brightflag Legal Operations Dashboard offers legal ops administrators centralized visibility into Invoices To Review, Blocked Invoices, and Timekeeper Rates. You also can export each tab on the dashboard into a report.

This dashboard updates every hour, so recent activity <1hr may not show until the next hourly update.

To Navigate to Legal Operations Dashboard:

Go to Menu > Dashboard
You will have access to three areas: Invoices to Review, Blocked Invoices, and Timekeepers.

This tab gives you an overview of the following columns:
