Title: Change User Home Page through Administration
Post by: cognos_guru on 23 Nov 2009 09:28:27 AM
All -

The client has requested that the administrator set the consumers' home page to his/her custom portal.  There doesn't seem to be a way to do this through Cognos Administration.  I suggested moving the portal tab to the first tab in the sequence displayed,  but this does not set the home.  Under preferences there is an option for "Home", but only Cognos Connection is displayed.  Is there a way to change that?

Thanks!

It can be done with the SDK or third party tools like MetaManager from Brightstar Partners.  I don't know of any way to do it en masse in the app.
