  • The left main navigation menu.
  • The overall monthly reporting snapshot block.

Dashboard Area #1 - The top toolbar

At the top toolbar, you will see two buttons:

  • The Reset button.
  • The Options button.

The Reset button allows you to clear all the conversions and leads statistics. This would be useful when you, for example, finished testing your inbound marketing campaign(s) and would like to launch the campaign(s) in a production mode.

When you click the Reset button, jInbound will display a dialog box:
