Introduction
This dashboard gives parking lot operators one place to follow the revenue and activity of their lots. It combines payments made through the Parka channels (app, kiosk and web), invoices issued through MyParking, and vehicle visits recorded at the lot's entry and exit. The dashboard has five pages, each on its own tab:
Overview
How much is being paid, and how many invoices are sent, month by month?
Payments breakdown
When, and through which channel, do customers pay?
Invoices breakdown
Which customer types are invoiced, and how much is paid or still unpaid?
Visits Overview
How many vehicles visit, how long they stay, what size they are, and when they arrive?
Visits detail
What does each individual visit look like?

Navigating the dashboard
Tabs
Switch pages with the tabs along the top. The active tab is shown in bold.

Controls bar
Most pages have a Controls bar directly under the tabs. It holds the filters for that page, such as time period or customer type. The current value of each control is shown next to its name. Click a control to change it, or use the arrow at the far right to expand or collapse the bar. Controls apply only to the page they sit on.

Selected period
Pages with a date filter show the active start and end date in the top-right corner, so you always know which period the charts cover.
Chart menu
Hover over any chart to reveal a small menu in its top-right corner. From here you can expand the chart to full screen, see which filters apply to it, and open further options such as exporting the data. Hovering over a bar or cell shows its exact value.

Zoom sliders
Some time-series charts have a slider bar under the x-axis. Drag either end of the slider to zoom in on a shorter time range; drag it back out to see the full history.
Overview
The Overview page is the starting point: four monthly charts that summarise revenue from both direct payments (Parka app, kiosk and web) and invoices (MyParking). It has no controls; each chart shows the full available history.
Payments breakdown
This page breaks down direct payments made through the app, kiosk and web, so you can see when customers pay and which channel they use.
Granularity
Sets the time unit used for grouping, e.g. Month.
Measure
Chooses what the charts measure, e.g. Revenue.
Time period
Sets the start and end date for the page. The chosen dates appear under Selected period in the top-right corner. Not applicable to Year-on-Year tables.
Invoices breakdown
This page covers revenue invoiced through MyParking to business customers such as tour operators and rental companies as well as late payment notices sent to private people, and shows how much of it is still unpaid. All amounts include the stay amount and service fees, with the Parka commission not subtracted.
Invoice created date
Limits the page to invoices created within a date range. Not applicable to Year-on-Year tables.
Customer type
Limits the page to one or more customer types (General, Rental Company, Tour Operator).
Visits Overview (Visits details)
This page describes the vehicles using the lot: how many come, how long they stay, how big they are and when they arrive. It is based on entry and exit events recorded at the lot.
Note
Not every visit has both an entry and an exit event recorded. Visits with a missing event are left out of this page, so visit counts here can be lower than the actual number of vehicles.
Measure
Switches between number and cars and percent of cars. Not applicable for Year-on-Year graphs
Entry time
Limits the page to visits whose entry falls within the chosen date range.
Visits detail
This page lists every individual visit in a table, for when you need to look up or export specific visits rather than totals.
Controls. The Controls bar offers Granularity, Measure and Time period. Use Time period to limit the table to visits in a chosen date range.
Visits with car size and length. One row per visit, with these columns:
Vehicle category
Vehicle size by seat count (Up to 9 seats, 10–23, 24–32, 33+ or Unknown).
entry_time
Date and time the vehicle entered the lot.
exit_time
Date and time the vehicle left the lot.
Visit length
Duration band of the visit, using the same bands as the Visit length distribution chart.
