Actually I am not sure if I understood you right or not.  ???

In Cognos, Dashboards are basically Reports that contains more than object type. So you can create a list report or a chart report but in a dashboard you can create a list report and a chart report in the same page.

To do this, you can drag and drop all the components you want to add to your dashboard. Then configure each component to use the required data fields and you are done.

To have a better control on your page, you may want to put a table first and use the cells as containers for your objects.  This case you can select where exactly do you want to add your components.

Hope this could help.  :)
