Users with rights to edit the Landing Experience dashboard can add widgets to the dashboard. All configuration including adding widgets is completed in the Landing Experience Dashboard Edit mode:
To add a widget:
Click
Select a widget category from the side panel (either Pre-Built (standard widgets) or Templates (Custom or User Report-Based Widgets).
Select a widget. Note, a description of the widget will display.
Click
When a widget is added to the dashboard and there is no "space" available at the top of the dashboard, the newly added widget will be added to the bottom of the grid. You can click
to move all widgets down the dashboard.
To delete a widget, click on the
of the selected widget. Be sure to save the dashboard to apply the changes.
Note, widgets can be placed anywhere on the dashboard grid. For some widgets that expand when clicked on them, the widget expands over other widgets and the screen highlights the selected widget.
Once widgets are added, additional configuration is required.
Pre-built/Standard Widgets
To configure a widget, click
on the widget.
You can customize the Title, Theme, and Title & Icons Color for standard widgets:
Enter a Title for the widget as required.
Select a Theme color using the color picker, or by entering a RGB, hex, or HSLA color value. This determines the color of the widget on the dashboard.
Select a Title & Icons Color using the color picker, or by entering a RGB, hex, or HSLA color value. This controls the color of the widget’s header title and button icons.
Click
for the change to take effect.
Templates / Custom Widgets
Additional configuration options are available for Custom widgets including prompt filters. These will vary according to the specific widget. Note, only when the mandatory fields are populated and
is clicked on the panel will the widget appear on the dashboard.
Expanded theming options are also available on specific Custom Widgets, click here to learn more.
Things to Note
Only one widget is allowed to be "expanded" at a time
When editing the title for Active Assignments by Country and Active Assignments by Phase widgets, only the "Active Assignments" portion of the title is customizable.
Custom widget descriptions can be changed after adding the widget to the dashboard to match the intended behavior. Descriptions are only viewable by users editing the dashboard and are limited to 500 characters.
Text and icons within the widget area that the theme is applied to will automatically adjust to either black or white based on the luminance of the background. Text will turn white for darker theme background and black for lighter theme backgrounds
When viewing widgets in their summary view including any numbers shown in hover-over, large numbers now show number separators based on the language setting of the user’s browser. Number separators will not appear in widget drill downs. For example - the value 123456789.05 will be displayed:
On a US-English browser - 123,456,789.05
On a Spain-Spanish browser - 123.456.789,05
The following widgets include standard links:
Open Initiations - links to the Initiation page for the record
Upcoming Start Dates, Active Assignments by Country, Upcoming End Dates, Active Assignments by Phase, Cancelled Assignments and Extended Assignments - links to the Assignment page for the record
