I've recently added a new system to our fleet in VRM Portal with LiFePo4 batteries. All of my other sites use Lead Acid batteries with smart shunts and they show consumption data on the dashbard, but this is not shown for the Dyness battery. Has anyone had any success in getting this to work? Here are some screenshots showing the two different systems:

Vrm requires an inverter to measure and display.
This is documented behaviour and covered in various other posts on the subject.
The shunt changes the behaviour slightly but without one this is normal behaviour for the configuration you have.
Can I suggest you pop a feature request in the modifications section, maybe with a poll for people to vote on it.
Sometimes you get lucky :)
Do you have a Victron inverter?
Batteries don't send consumption data, the data sent for smart batteries is rather specific.
Dyness is also unsupported, unfortunately.
They used to present as Pylontech, so if it is visible in the GX menu then you will be getting what it is sending.
You also need to make sure it is configured as the battery monitor in the GX system setup.
Here are some screenshots:
First, the system with the dyness battery:
And here's the lead acid system with the smart shunt:
