Launch Pad

Wizard

Launch Pad (LP) can now be created using a Wizard. The Wizard takes users step by step through the process of creating a Launch Pad.

Widget Maneuvering and Configuration

As part of the Wizard, users can maneuver the widgets around the screen. Users can also configure widgets if required. Configuring widgets no longer requires users to modify the jsp files directly.

Assignment

As part of the Wizard, users can directly assign a Launch Pad to a particular security group with no need for manual updates to a security group’s default start page. As well, users can remove a Launch Pad from a particular security group under the same conditions.

Widget Registration

New widgets can now be registered through the main application along with any specific widget parameter details. This improvement allows new widgets to be available once registered, for use in the Launch Pad Wizard.

Refreshed Widgets

A number of refreshed widgets are displayed and used in the new Launch Pad framework. The refreshed widgets are all based on the widgets from the old framework. The widgets are:

  • Employee Balance
  • Retail KPI
  • Quick Links
  • Cognos Burst Report - Nurse Manager KPIs
  • Cognos Burst Report - Manufacturing OT Tracking
  • Cognos Burst Report - Manufacturing Plant Manager
  • Cognos Burst Report - Manufacturing OT for Single Department
  • Cognos Burst Report - Retail Executive Business Performance Graph
  • Cognos Burst Report - Retail Executive Labor Performance Graph
  • Cognos Burst Report - Travel and Transportation OT vs Regular Chart
  • Cognos Burst Report - Travel and Transportation FTE Usage
