Use the Dashboard Home dialog box to select a section to set as the home dashboard section (the first section that is displayed when the document is opened). In addition for Interactive Reporting users only, use the Dashboard Home dialog box to enable the preloading of the active home section in order to increase loading performance in EPM Workspace. This option is enabled only when the selected dashboard section in an Interactive Reporting document contains a minimum of one dashboard with at least one embedded browser.
Section rules define the first displayed section when a document is opened:
Defined through the object model, for example, Activate()
Selected on the Dashboard Home dialog box
If not defined through the object model or the user interface, the section that was last saved is opened first (This behavior is a change in Release 9.3, that may cause the document to open to the home section. In releases earlier than Release 9.3, the same document might have opened to the last saved section or another section)
If a home dashboard is not set, then the last saved section is opened (If the user cannot access the last saved section; for example, due to an adaptive state which prevents a user from viewing some sections, then the document is opened in a section available to the user)
In releases earlier than Release 9.3, the default home section was the first section added to the document. In Release 9.3, there is no default home section; that is, if no home section is defined, none is assumed in Interactive Reporting.
To enable the Dashboard Home toolbar button when an Interactive Reporting document file is deployed in the EPM Workspace, Dashboard home must be explicitly set in Interactive Reporting Studio or Interactive Reporting Web Client.
