Creating and Deleting Shared Siebel Intelligence Dashboards
Before you create shared dashboards, make sure you have planned your Web Catalog directory or folder structure and security strategy. Guidelines for creating a shared dashboard, within the broader context of Web Catalog structure and security framework, are given in Guidelines for Setting Up Siebel Analytics Web Security in the Web Catalog and Dashboards.
For more information about shared folder structure in the Web Catalog see Administering the Siebel Analytics Web Catalog.
For more information about permissions, see Managing Siebel Analytics Web Security.
Overall, to create a shared dashboard, you first create the dashboard and then add content using the Dashboard Editor. You can also assign Web Groups permissions to access the dashboard. Users who are members of more than one Web Group can select the dashboard they see by default from all of the dashboards to which they have permissions.
This section describes, from an administrator's perspective, how to create and delete dashboards, and add sections. For more information about adding pages, sections, and content from an end-user's perspective, see Analytics Web Online Help.
