The Base Date corresponds to the competency month to which your dashboard date refer.
IMPORTANT:
The setting of the Base Date field in the settings screen is applied to the user logged in – not the selected user-in the ICG. That is, if you are accessing any other user’s dashboard, this setting will apply only to you and will not affect that user’s dashboard.
By default, the base date in the ICG is defined by CM-1 (calendar month minus 1). Therefore, if the calendar month is March, the base date will be February. When changing the calendar month to April, the base date was moved to March, and so on.
To set the base date of your dashboard in the ICG, click on the gear icon and then on Settings.
In the field Base Date, select the year and month you need. Then click on Save.
