## Configuring your dashboard layout

When publishing a dashboard based on your analysis, you likely want to change the layout a bit to tell a better story. To building your dashboard by clicking **Report** on the top menu bar from your Smartbook:

</Frame>

In this view, you can do a few things:

1. Select which elements you would like to display in your published dashboard
2. Re-order and resize elements
3. Schedule your dashboard to run on a given cadence

<Note>
  **Important**: The order of the cells in the Smartbook matters, but in the dashboard, you can reorder cells however you want. [Fabi.ai](https://www.fabi.ai/) tracks dependencies between cells, which gives you the freedom to craft your dashboard in whichever way will resonate the most with your stakeholders.
