Configure Home Page Appearance

Oracle provides you with a default home page design that salespeople can use to access all of the navigation icons and key sales information they need. While you can still use alternate multipage designs that are more configurable, Oracle recommends that for CX Sales, you use the default theme and limit your configuration to uploading your logo and hiding sections of the page you don't need. You can't change the order of the sections on the page.

  1. Create and enter a sandbox with the Appearance tool enabled:

    1. In the Navigator, click Configuration > Sandboxes.

    2. Click Create Sandbox.

    3. Enter a sandbox name.

    4. Select Active for the Appearance tool.

    5. Click Create and Enter.

    6. From the sandbox Tools menu, select Appearance to enter the tool.

  2. In the Logo field, select File from the list and upload your logo.

    The logo image must be saved as a .png file with a transparent background with a recommended maximum size of 200 pixels wide and 50 pixels high.

  3. If you're hiding the Things to Finish and News and Announcements sections, there's no point in uploading an image using Cover Image. The image appears in the center of the page under these sections.

  4. Remove either or both of the Things to Finish and News and Announcements sections of the page if you aren't using them. Things to Finish displays notifications you can also access from the toolbar. News and Announcements can display your company-wide announcements. Here's how to hide them:

    1. Click Home Page Display, the top icon on the page.

    2. Click in the Visible column for each section and select No.

  5. View your new home page configuration while inside the sandbox by clicking Home.

  6. Publish the sandbox:

    1. Click the sandbox name and select Publish.

    2. On the Sandbox Detail page, click Publish.

      You can check the progress of the publish process in the Current Status section.
