With SAP BI 4.0 one can customize the landing page of BI launch pad by creating a custom BI workspace, this can be done by a user himself or an administrator can customize the homepage for a particular user group.
A BI workspace allows you to organize and display different BI platform data sources, such as CR or WebI reports, hyperlinks, BI launch pad modules such as inbox or alerts, or external web pages, in a single view. With the ability to set any BI workspace as custom homepage, you can bring the most relevant information to the attention of a particular user group when they logging into BI launch pad.
You can also set the landing page to a particular folder.
In this tutorial learn how to change the BI launch pad home page for a user group.
Via the BI launch pad Preferences page you are also able to change other preferences such as the default folder that a user will be navigated to when they login to BI launch pad. You can also change which columns will be displayed in the Document Tab and how many documents will be displayed per page.
As administrator you cannot define preferences for users, only for groups. When preferences have not been defined for a group they are inherited from its closest parent. The closest parent is defined as the group(s) that the group is a direct descendant of.
Default preferences out of the box are set on the Everyone group. Changing these preferences updates the default preferences for all groups that do not have preferences defined for them or their parent groups.
