Hi,

You can set a dashboard or a report as the default home page, based on security roles in either the Cognos namespace or your security namespace. Go to Manage > Accounts, select your namespace, then for each role go into Properties and select the Customization tab. You can specify the report or dashboard here.

Cheers!

I can see from your Welcome page in the background that you're on Release 4 (11.0.4). As I mentioned above, the Customization tab is available from Release 5 (11.0.5) onwards...

Not one I'm aware of. Upgrading to R5 or R6 is the way forward :)

In 11.0.6 use can create one custom folder per role. The custom folders act as custom tabs in the navigation panel on the left side of the screen.

Is there a particular capability for the use of "Customization tab" for roles?
I am at 11.1.5 i created a role under a folder in Cognos namespace. When i log in as a system admin, i can see the customization tab.
But when i logged in as a different user the customization tab is not present. I made sure the user i used has full permission on the role but still the customization tab only shows when i logged in as a system admin.

Not sure if there's a particular permission or capabilities needed for this.
