Enabling Home Page Personalization

You can determine whether or not a Personalize Home Page menu option appears on the home page. Selecting this option allows end users to manage groups and manage the tiles in each group.

You can also lock one group of tiles to prevent personalization. If a group is locked, end users will not be able to add tiles to or remove tiles from the group, and will not be able to reorder tiles within the group.

If a group is a predefined group, that is, it contains tiles with the property Default App on Home Page selected, end users cannot delete it but they can personalize it and reset their changes.

Changes that you make to predefined groups will not be visible to the end user unless:

• You clear the personalization, or

• The end user resets the group, or

• The end user updates the home page.

Changes that end users make to the home page are saved per device group. This enables end users to personalize their home page in one way for mobile devices and in another way for desktops, according to the device groups you have configured.

You can also determine whether end users can use the following personalization options:

• Show or hide groups.

• Update the home page.

• Set themes.

• Clear personalization.

BI Bookmarks

End users can change and save the current state of SAP Business Explorer (BEx) Web Application iViews and pages by saving them as tiles. They can click or tap the (Actions) icon to open a menu containing the Save as Tile option.This action creates a bookmark ID that appears in the tile application URL, which can be shared between different end users who are assigned to the same role.
