From @Fraidy Jacoby:
"I have a table that tracks a process. I created a status formula that updates according to where the record stands in terms of the steps required to complete the process. In order to manage the users daily workload, I created a dashboard that uses gauge reports as widgets with one for each status. The user can click on the widget pertaining to one status to work on those records and move them along in the process until it reaches completion. Then the record moves to "closed" status and the number on the "closed" widget goes up!"
