Getting Started Guide - Element Detail Pages

Start by logging into ClearPoint Strategy at [app.clearpointstrategy.com/#/home](http://app.clearpointstrategy.com/#/home)

Each Element created in ClearPoint has a details page associated with it.

Once you are on the Detail page you can view key attributes and information specific to that Element including, Status indicators to quickly view progress, owners and collaborators that may be responsible for updating or reporting on the element, analysis and recommendations fields to share qualitative insights and any elements that are linked to the element you are viewing.

Each element type serves a different purpose and with that there are some unique default fields associated with each element that can be included on the details page.

For Initiatives, the Element used for project management addition fields include Start and End Date, Percent Completed, a Completed checkbox, Milestones and a Gantt Chart.

With Measures you can track quantitative data in the measure data table which can be visualized in a customizable chart.

The detail page layout can be changed by users with Editor permissions and above.

All the default field options for each element are available to be included and rearranged within the detail page layout, in addition to the default fields available for each element, Admin users can create an infinite number of custom fields. Custom fields allow you to customize the name and function of a field, there are many options including text, date, yes or no checkbox, pick list and user field types. Once created these fields will also be available as options to include in the Elements detail page.

Admin users can create custom pod styles to add some color and branding to the fields displayed. Styles are first designed in Admin options and can then be applied to pods while editing the layout. We cover how to build them in another article.
