Home Page

The home page is the first page that is displayed to you post-authentication. The home page has various elements that can be used and configured such as Dashlets, Dashboards and the Sidebar.

Dashlets

Dashlets are user-configurable sections displayed on the dashboard that give you a quick overview of your records and activity immediately after login. This is particularly useful for sales and support led teams as this reduces the number of clicks required to view/modify data.

Dashlets can be rearranged within each dashboard, by dragging/dropping it to the required location. You can add a dashlet by choosing the 'Add Dashlets' option from the Actions tab.

Clicking on the 'Add Dashlets' link will open up the Add Dashlets popup which allows users to select from a list of standard dashlets.

Once you have completed all the information on this page, click Next to progress to the next step in the wizard.
