4 Report Configuration

This chapter describes the reports that are included with Retail Home along with requirements for their configuration.

Tile State Reports

These reports are available to use on tile states within an application tile. See Dashboard Configuration for details about configuring tile states and data sources.

Favorites

The Favorites tile state report can be included on an application's tile if that application supports favorites. The Favorites report will display the items (tasks, reports, etc.) that have been marked as "favorite" by the user within the target application. The user can click on a favorite item to launch the favorite item in the target application within a separate browser window.
