@naved77 As far as you are collecting the required information in Splunk in the form of logs (monitoring application logs from App Server using Forwarder), events (through REST API or Custom Script using Splunk Add On Builder or HTTP Event Collector) or planning to pull directly from Database (thorough the Splunk DB Connect app), you should be able to create such dashboard. 

Following is the Splunk Documentation on Dashboard Tutorial: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/SearchTutorial/Aboutdashboards

Or you can take the Splunk Fundamentals 1 eLearning course which is free for everyone: https://www.splunk.com/en_us/training/courses/splunk-fundamentals-1.html

(PS: If you are a Splunk Partner, you should also get Fundamentals 2 as a free course as well but that would not be mandatory for you to get started as complete information is also freely available through Splunk Docs link provided above).

Also, if you want to easily create insanely amazing dashboard with easy to use features of drag, drop, resize, copy/paste, layering allowing you to take complete control of every pixel of your dashboard in order to convey a better story, do check out Splunk Dashboard App (Beta) .

You could start by creating a dashboard from the indexes and sourcetypes you already have for a know specific customerid. When you have you dashboard the way you want it, you can look at converting it to a form and add an input so that the user can specify the customer id. You keep this customer id in a token and use the value of the token in your dashboard search instead of the specific customer id you used to start with. For customer id choices, you could populate a dropdown list with a dedup'd list of customer id harvested from your source inputs.

Basically, start with a simple dashboard and build from there
