Managing the home dashboard
The home dashboard contains dynamic widgets, which serve as shortcuts to application modules. Widgets enable you to access features in one click, without navigating the main menu. They also display application data in real time.
For example, any updates in the application, such as a new comment or a newly edited style item, will be reflected in the Comments and Recently Edited widgets within a time frame that you specify in the dashboard settings.
These widgets can be added and customized on the home dashboard:
| Widget | Description |
|---|---|
| Libraries | Contains commonly used modules in the application |
| My Folders | Contains filters from the setup of your organization structure |
| Favorites | Contains a list of your saved layouts |
| Follow Up | Displays activities and milestones and their respective due dates |
| Recently Edited | Displays the most recently modified records in the application |
| Notifications | Displays notification messages about updates to items made by other
users Note: Integration activities made through Infor Fashion
PLM Connector Toolbox and actions made by users for requests in Infor Fashion PLM Partner Collaboration also appear on
the Notifications widget.
|
| Latest Comments | Displays the most recent comments |
| Latest Comments by Date | Displays the comments that are sorted and filtered by date. |
