> To me dashboards seams like the place to consume multiple views. So if you wanted a view with multiple calendars you could have that. In addition to this, if dashboards can be placed inside entities then you can have the context of the entity.

This kind of makes sense, but see this: [What if entity view was treated as a dashboard?](https://community.fibery.io/t/what-if-entity-view-was-treated-as-a-dashboard/8322)

The new “Dashboard” view I feel is very artificial when what we really need is for an entity to feel more like a dashboard.

Why place a dashboard inside an entity when you can just make the entity view into a dashboard? I feel like its a much more elegant solution.

> Or as I think you are envisioning, you would like to have tabs on a view that switches context similarly to how reports work. Is that right?

The main thing I’m trying to avoid is needing to adjust Schema and Filters after the system is set up. The tabs like in reports need to be set up manually, this means making a new tab every time theres a new client, for example. I was suggesting for there to be a way to have “Smart Tabs” kind of.
