Configurations and Gadget Behavior

Each user sees one configuration. Configurations can be arranged in order of priority. If a user is assigned to more than one configuration, only the first configuration in the list (from top to bottom) will be displayed.

  • Example: If a user is both a Head Of and a Supervisor, they will only see the Head Of configuration, if it is higher on the list.

If a user does not match any customized configuration, they will automatically be shown either the management or non-management default configuration.

To prevent users from rearranging gadgets on their homepage, select the Lock Homepage gadget order for all team members checkbox.
