# Script dashboard

The ***Script dashboard*** is useful for centralizing scripts and running them with specific permissions. It is a great addition for IT teams who often need to use scripts with variables, especially scripts that do not have a direct link to an entry (for example, a script that creates users in Active Directory). The dashboard is located in the ***Tools*** section of the ribbon in Remote Desktop Manager.

{% hint style="info" %}
The ***Script dashboard*** feature is also available as an entry. Create a new entry in Remote Desktop Manager and select ***Script dashboard*** under ***Session – Other***.
{% endhint %}
