Sometimes there is unstructured data that needs to be collected, such as selecting the option "other" and providing extra details, additional comments from the auditor, or a description of coaching performed during the audit. This information is incredibly helpful when analyzing a critical process but it doesn't fit nicely into a predefined field in an audit, which means it is also harder to view and make use of.

With the table widget and the ability to edit Dashboards, we can take one step closer to more easily surfacing these hidden gems. The table widget will list all unique entered data for the field we specify, so if we pick a free-text field we will see all the unique comments for the time range under analysis. Here's an example.
