To install and configure Homepages

Before Web UI users can use homepages, you must import the corresponding additional files into their Web UI user profiles.

  • Prerequisites
    The homepages you want to import must be present as additional files on your LN server. If an additional file is not present, you must first install the corresponding PMC solution.

  • To view the reports in the homepages delivered with LN, install the LN Report Viewer on the Web UI server.

    For details, see the Infor Web UI - Installation and Configuration Guide (U8715 US).

To import homepages:

Step 1. Start the Web UI administration console

To start the Web UI administration console, point your browser to the appropriate URL; this URL has the following structure: http://[hostname]:[port]/[webui-root]/servlet/admin.

Step 2. Open the Homepage Import page
  1. In the Infor Web UI Administration pane, click Infor LN. A list of Web UI administration pages is displayed.
  2. Open the Homepage Import page. The Web UI user profiles are displayed in the page’s right pane.
Step 3. Import the homepages

In the Homepage Import page, complete the following steps:

  1. Connect to the LN server: In the Login group box, select an LN environment, enter a login code and a password, and click Connect.
  2. In the Package Combination field, select a package combination. The homepage archives in the selected package combination are displayed per package/module.
  3. Select the homepage archives you want to import.
  4. Select the Web UI user profiles into which you want to import the homepage archives.

  5. Click Import.

    • Before Web UI users can use the new homepages, they must log off and log on using the updated user profiles.
    • Homepages created in the first release of Web UI 8.4 are delivered in .zip files. To import homepages from a .zip file, use the Homepage Import From File page; this page is located under the Infor Web UI Administration node.
