Establishing Navigator Homepages

This section provides an overview of Navigator homepages.

A Navigator homepage is the first business process that a user sees after accessing PeopleSoft Navigator. Normally, the homepage is a business process composed of all other business processes that are to be visible in PeopleSoft Navigator. However, if only one business process is to be visible, you can use it as the homepage.

Navigator homepages are associated with individuals through permission lists, which are associated with a user's profile, as defined in PeopleSoft Security.

To establish a user's homepage:

  1. Mark a business process as available for use as a homepage.

  2. Identify the business process as the homepage that is associated with a permission list.

  3. Associate the permission list with the user's profile.

To prepare a business process to be a Navigator homepage:

  1. In PeopleSoft Application Designer, open the business process to use as the homepage.

  2. Right-click in the map (but not on an item in the map) and select Definition Properties.

    The Business Process Properties dialog box appears.

  3. Select the Use tab.

  4. Select Can be used as a Navigator home page .

  5. Click OK to close the dialog box.

  6. Save the business process.

To associate a permission list with a Navigator homepage:

  1. In PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture, select PeopleTools, Security, Permissions & Roles, Permission Lists.

  2. Open the permission list to associate with this homepage.

  3. On the General page, specify a Navigator homepage.

    You can select any business process for which Can be used as a Navigator home page is selected.
