Context Selection
Use
A context represents a combination of one scorecard, goal diagrams, a cause and effect diagram, themes or pathways, and associated initiatives. It may be a subset of these items, depending on the way the context is set up and the tabs that are available to you. When you select a context, you refresh the current window with the information and objects associated with that context.
Prerequisites
Your context administrator has assigned your role to at least one context. If your Context dropdown list is read-only, it means that there is only one context available to you.
Features
When you start the application, a default context is used. The default context is set using 
Preferences 
Startup
.
During a session, you can switch to a different context by selecting one from the Context dropdown list in any application.
For example, if you are displaying the Scorecard tab with the Corporate context, and you choose the Finance context, you remain in the Scorecard tab but you view the KPIs and objectives associated with the Finance context. If you switch to the Initiatives tab, you view the initiatives for the Finance context.
