Retail Home is a portal-type application for the RGBU enterprise. The UI consists of a tile-based configurable dashboard that highlights important metrics and KPIs across RGBU applications. The profile-based dashboards are configured by a Retail Home administrator for each enterprise role.
The user can access the Retail Home dashboard via the Tasks menu. To access the dashboard, click Home Dashboard in the task menu.
The user can see a set of controls at the top of the dashboard. On this bar, the user can see and select their current role and refresh the data on the dashboard.
Roles define what information a user sees on the dashboard. The selected role determines which tiles appear on the dashboard, and which reports, if any, appears in the banner and contextual area. Roles must be configured by an administrator before the user will see any content on their dashboard.
Users who have more than one role can switch between the roles that are assigned to them. To see the list of assigned roles, click on the Role LOV near the end of the banner.
Note: Roles will only be listed if the user has been granted that role, and if a dashboard has been defined for that role. |
The main area of the dashboard contains a collection of tiles. A tile may correspond to an application, link, or other source of information which the user can access. Inside a tile, the user may find at-a-glance information such as metrics, reports, user notifications, links, or other relevant content, depending on how the tile was configured.
Each tile may have multiple pages of content. The user has several options to move between pages of content.
First, RGBU enterprise application tiles that have been configured to support favorites and notifications will display a favorites and notifications icon in the tile header.
Second, when the user hovers a tile, previous and next arrows will appear on the sides of the tile. By clicking these arrows, the user will move to the corresponding page in the tile.
Third, at the bottom of the tile, the user can see a row of icons corresponding to each page in the tile, where the current page's icon filled in. The user can click any of these icons to go directly to that page within the tile.
Fourth, tiles may be configured to support filter options specified by the user. Pressing the filter icon in the upper-right corner of the tile will open the filter dialog to provide values to filter data by:
When dashboard tiles are initially loaded, if required filters do not have values entered, the following message is displayed for the corresponding tile page.
The user will have to click on the filter icon to enter the required filter values before tile page can be rendered with content.
