Employees can customize the Employee Center dashboard to show the information they need most. Click Personalize in the upper right of the dashboard, or click Personalize Dashboard in the Settings portlet. For more information about personalizing your dashboard, see Dashboard Personalization.

Note:

You can't customizr the dashboard if the lock icon (Screenshot of a lock icon that appears beside the word "Home" on the left side of the home page which shows that the Employee Center dashboard cannot be customized.) appears beside the Home on the left side of the home page.

Understanding Restrictions for Employee Center Data

The standard Employee Center role filters purchase orders, expense reports, and time reports employees with this role can view. Employees with this role can see their own purchase orders, expense reports, and time reports. If they're supervisors or approvers, they can also see purchase orders, expense reports, and time reports owned by their employees.

In OneWorld accounts, subsidiary restrictions don't filter time and expense report records for users with this role. Subsidiary restrictions do filter the records for this role, except for times reports, purchase orders, and expense reports. The system checks subsidiary restrictions for the role first, then for individual users.

Customized Employee Center roles based on the standard role filter records the same way by default.

If you use the Multiple Currencies feature, how currency fields show up on purchase requests and orders that need approval depends on whether you customize the view.

Non-customized View

  • Amount – shows amount in base currency

  • Base Currency – shows currency in base amount
