Overview

 

The first applet loaded when logging into InFocus is the Dashboard. The Dashboard is a fully customizable and dynamic set of Widgets that gives real-time access to the most important aspects of a user's work in InFocus. The Widgets available to a user's Dashboard are governed by the Dashboard Group.

 

Part of the Utilities module, Dashboard Groups define user access to Widgets and the information they contain. Employees are assigned a Dashboard Group which thereby governs what they can view and customize on their personal Dashboard.

 

Note: If there are queries or alerts that reveal sensitive information, make sure they are not allowed, except to specific Dashboard Groups.

 

Once the Dashboard Group has been given access to a specific set of Widgets, the group can be configured with predefined Dashboards. These Dashboards are made available to users who are a part of the group. When such a user logs in they will see the "Default" Dashboard defined by the Dashboard Group. When a user is viewing Widgets that are part of the "Default" Dashboard for a group, they cannot alter the specific settings of the Widget; they can only organize them on the Dashboard and choose whether or not to show them upon login. Alternatively, a user can customize/create other Dashboards by clicking Configure>Dashboards from the Toolbar on the Dashboard applet. This will allow them to configure and personalize their own Dashboards- using only the Widgets that are allowed to them by their respective Dashboard Group.
