Information Pages
Overview
Information pages are a way for administrators to communicate information
to all project members. Dashboards provide you with a personalized view of
your site and projects, enabling you to see assigned action items and when they
are due.
The default information pages are available to all members. There is an exception
to this rule: the default setting for the Site Executive Summary, Project Executive
Summary, and the Portfolio Information pages is: "Viewable by Selected Site
Members". When adding these pages the option, Viewable by Selected Site
Members, is the default. If members are not added to this list, then only
administrators can see these two pages.
Project members with No Access Permission can only see site level information
pages. An administrator can always see all information pages even when the
"viewable by" list does not explicitly list the administrator.
The default setting for the Site Executive Summary, Project Executive Summary,
and the Portfolio Information pages is: "Viewable by Selected Site Members".
When adding these pages the option, Viewable by Selected Site Members, is the
default. If members are not added to this list, then only administrators can see
theses two pages.
Administrators can add custom information pages to a site or project. While
any type of file can be selected as the source for an information page, web pages
(HTML files) are the best choice because a special application is not required to
view them. For example, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet can be an information
page. However, only project members who have Excel can view the spreadsheet.
