Is It Out of Scope? — Web design
Is building a custom analytics dashboard out of scope for a web design project?
Yes. A custom dashboard is a data application, not a marketing-site design deliverable.
This shows up when a client wants to view their site's performance data in a branded, custom interface rather than a standard analytics tool's default reports.
Is it out of scope?
Yes. A custom dashboard means pulling and displaying live data, not designing static marketing pages — it's a data application with its own UI states, outside the page list quoted.

Exclusions clause→ — Custom data-dashboard applications fall outside a marketing-site design scope, which covers the site's public pages, not internal reporting tools.
Example contract wording
Example contract wording (illustrative, not legal advice)
A custom dashboard for your analytics data is a different kind of build than the marketing site — happy to scope that as its own project.
How MarginFlow flags it
MarginFlow flags custom-dashboard requests outside_scope on design contracts, since data application design is outside the public-facing pages actually quoted.
