The Dashboard: Phase Gantt portlet gives an overview of all WBS level 1 tasks or milestones for a single project.  The portlet will pull the "id" from the page it is placed on, so this portlet is usually placed on the project dashboard tab.  The portlet displays the name, and a graphical representation of the timeline for the phases. The date range may be configured by day, month, year, or quarter. The start date may also be configured to any date or a relative date (start of current month, start of next year, etc).

The Dashboard: Project Information portlet gives a set of high-level information about the project.  The portlet will pull the "id" from the page it is placed on, so this portlet is usually placed on the project dashboard tab.  The portlet displays the name, project ID, project manager, description, start date, finish date, baseline start, and baseline finish.

The Dashboard:  Project Status Single-line portlet gives an overview of the project overall status as well as the status indicators on the "current" status report object. The portlet will pull the "id" from the page it is placed on, so this portlet is usually placed on the project dashboard tab.  This portlet displays the report date, symbols relating to the overall status, scope, schedule, cost/effort, and the overall explanation across a single line in the portlet.
