Custom Dashboards 
-------------------

You can create new dashboards based on a default dashboard that ships with the system, or create 
new, custom dashboards from scratch. 


To create a new custom dashboard, use one of these options: 

* Create a brand new dashboard. Click **Add Dashboard** from the dashboard library panel. See :ref:`add-new-custom-dashboard`
* Choose one of the VOSS reference dashboards, clone it (make a copy), and modify it for your requirements to 
  create a new custom dashboard. See :ref:`working-with-dashboards`
