Enabling Home Page PersonalizationLocate this document in the navigation structure

Administrators configure the ability of end users to personalize the SAP Fiori launchpad home page.

Prerequisites

You are assigned the Content Admin role.

Context

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 clean up the personalization, or

  • The end user resets the group, or

  • The end user syncs the home page.

When an end user logs on to the SAP Fiori launchpad for the first time, the home page state is saved. 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.

If you enable personalization, end users can do the following:
  • Create new groups.

  • Reset changes to groups.

    Note

    End users can reset predefined groups but not locked groups.

  • Drag tiles to a new location in the group.

  • Move a tile to another group.

  • Remove tiles from a group.

  • Save applications as tiles.

  • Rename tiles and change the subtitle and info text.

    Note

    This option is not available for remote tiles. Changing the info text is not available for image tiles set with Image Type=Image (Full-Width).

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

  • Show/hide groups.

  • Sync the home page.

  • Set themes.
