What is the Purpose of the Dashboard Gadget?
The Root Cause Analysis - My Unanalyzed Issue Attributions gadget was designed to ensure that everyone involved in the Root Cause Analysis of an issue provides their analysis summary in a timely fashion. Although all required parties are notified of their involvement via email as soon as the Root Cause Issue is attributed, these email notifications can easily be missed or forgotten about. The dashboard gadget serves as a constant reminder of the list of Root Cause Analysis items that still require your attention without having to dig through your email for the original notifications.
Optimally, you would always be caught up and the gadget would display no entries

Configuring the Dashboard Gadget

The first three options control whether the Attributer, Resolver, or Closer tables will appear within the gadget. The optimal settings for these options largely depend on how your organization uses JIRA.
