Home Page and Work Center Pages
You can determine which content blocks should be displayed on the home page and on the work center pages. You can define specific characteristics for the displayed content blocks, determine their position on the page, and change their titles.
You can assign your own views to existing home pages and work center pages without enhancing the corresponding UI components, as long as they are suitable.
Integration
Each SAP business role has its own report page, which the user can launch in the navigation bar. The configuration of reports depends on the SAP business role that you select. Report pages are configured in the same way as the home page and work centers in an SAP business role.
Features
Each SAP business role has one home page, which is automatically launched when the user logs on. The number of work centers depends on the respective business role. This also applies to the appearance and content of the individual work centers. This means that the configuration of the home page and work center pages depends on the respective business role.
