5 Workspace: Home Tab

back to WebCenter Sites Help

The workspace is at the center of the Contributor interface. The Home tab is the first tab you see when you first log in to the Contributor interface. This tab contains your dashboard.

Note:

You can return to the Home tab at any time by clicking the Home tab. The Home tab cannot be closed.

The dashboard may look different from user to user. This is because your dashboard only displays information pertaining to you. You can even reposition the widgets on your dashboard by dragging and dropping the widgets into a different location on the dashboard. The following provides information about the widgets on your dashboard:

  • Bookmarks: When you bookmark an asset for easy retrieval at a future time, the asset is accessible from this widget. Bookmarked assets are also accessible from the Bookmarks node in the My Work tree.

  • Saved Searches: A Saved Search is search criteria that you have saved to use on a later date. This widget lists all of the search criteria you have saved as a Saved Search and all of the Saved Searches other WebCenter Sites users have shared with the role(s) you are assigned.

  • Assignments: Provides a summary of your present workload in the current site. From this widget you can access an asset that has been assigned to you during its workflow process and finish your assignments.

  • Checkouts: Provides a summary of the assets that are presently checked out to you.
