Objective
After completing this lesson, you will be able to create a Home Page Announcement in SAP Fieldglass.
Buyer administrators can create and edit custom Home Page Announcements for buyers, suppliers, or workers.
For example, it may be important that users are notified of a new policy or reminded of an upcoming event.
When created, Home Page Announcements instantly display on the User’s SAP Fieldglass home page. The User can remove the announcement, but new announcements will always appear when published.
Home Page Announcements appear on user's home pages.
| 1 | To view the list of available announcements, select Home Page Announcement from the System Tools section of the admin menu. |
There are three home page announcement templates: one for buyers, one for suppliers, and one for workers.
| 2 | The Status indicates whether the message is displaying on specified users’ home pages. Active indicates that it is displaying. Inactive means it is not. Messages are activated/inactivated on the announcement details page. |
| 3 | If the message is intended to display within a set time frame, the Start Date/End Dates will appear here. When the end date has passed, the message will be removed from the users’ home pages, though it will still be listed as Active in the list. |
| 4 | To view the details page for a home page announcement, select the appropriate link in the User Type column. |
The details page indicates all of the same data as the list page but includes a preview of the message itself. You would select the Edit button to revise the message.
| 5 | Inactivate is a toggle button. When the message is active, the button is gray and displays the words "Inactivate." Conversely, when the message is inactive, the button is blue and displays the words "Activate." |
