How the dashboard information is calculated
Activity is displayed as a percentage and is based on the total number of VDR visits and unique documents accessed. A document is considered accessed when viewed or downloaded. Group activity includes all group members with Manager, Publisher, Reviewer, Reviewer Plus, and Previewer roles.
Information on the dashboard is updated approximately every hour.
- If a user is included in two (or more) groups, the user’s activity is included in the activity for both groups.
- Only one visit is counted per session. A session lasts from the time a group member logs into Intralinks VDRPro until the group member logs out, closes the browser or is inactive for an hour or more and is logged out automatically.
- The Documents accessed count is updated whenever a group member views or downloads a document. If two members access the same document, it is only counted once.
- When IRM Information Rights Management (IRM) provides security for downloaded documents. When IRM is applied, documents are encrypted before downloading, and users must enter their email address and password to view the documents. Exchange managers can revoke access at any time.-protected documents are downloaded, Intralinks VDRPro continues to track the number of times they are viewed, and each time an IRM-protected document is opened, the “Documents accessed” count is updated. When documents that are not IRM protected are downloaded, the Documents accessed count is updated once for the download only; subsequent viewings are not tracked or reported.
- Users with the Manager, Publisher, Reviewer, Reviewer Plus and Previewer are counted.
- On the Top Users chart and table, usage data is displayed even if a user has been deleted from the data room.
