4. Analyzing Exploration Dashboard Reports

Exploration Dashboard allows you to generate reports that enhance your understanding of timing issues in your project. These reports deliver a variety of data, providing crucial insights into resource allocation, timing analysis, and other design conditions. Each report identifies possible areas for optimization, helping you to fine tune conditions and reach timing closure more quickly.

To access the list of available reports in the Exploration Dashboard, run the Import Analysis Report task, which can be found in the Reports folder within the Tasks menu.
