Users that have the Manage Global Views/Reports permission can add/delete Widgets to a home page or modify its layout. In addition, any user who creates a home page can add, delete, and modify widgets on that page.

  1. Click the Add Widgets link.

  2. Click the Wrench icon File:WidgetIcon.jpg icon in the heading bar.

Move a Widget

Widgets can be moved from column to column, or moved up or down within a column. To select a widget, hover the mouse over the header bar of the widget until the mouse cursor changes, then click and drag the widget into a new position.

Minimize a Widget

You can minimize selected widgets by clicking the Minimize button, located in the widget header bar. These widgets will remain minimized during the current session, but will open again at your next login.
