AUS Analytics Dashboards and Insights
There are three dashboards released prior to September 2025, each representing a key set of Tax data. Each dashboard comprises a series of Insights, providing various perspectives and interpretations of the underlying data. Dashboards have filters available to refine results, these filters differ between dashboards but the filter for Tax Year is consistent and defaults to the current Tax Year.
Individual Insights offer interactive features, with key interactions enabling Drill Down and Show Data capabilities that present detailed information based on the selected measure. The drill-down views are generally presented in table format and include additional filtering options, depending on the data displayed. Drill down filters the underlying format by what is selected on the top-level Insight. Show data simply gives access to the underlying format but without filtering the data.
