  • Configured to only affect certain master attributes/categories (done through revisions)
  • Ex. Department is a master attribute/category, and Human Resources is a single Department, so the revision can affect Human Resources only


Categories are predefined add-ins that can be placed on the homepage in a column.  These are the delivered categories and the type of content that each can contain.  In order to view the content in each Category you must associate the content to an Attribute via an Attribute Revision.  The content you want to add must be entered via a Content Revision prior to adding it to the Attribute Revision.

How do you configure Homepage Category Content using an Attribute Revision?

Category sections can display different items based on 5  Attributes in the system.  Users can only be entered at the Root Node of the Attribute and New Hires can be controlled at any node. This applies to all attributes except for Company. In case of Company attribute, users and New Hires can be entered at any node,

How do you add Non-Category content?

Non-category content will show for all users regardless of their attribute setup.

There are 3 types of homepages available to modify--System Administrator, all other Users and New Hires--so if you modify the page, all of the members of those 3 Role Types will see the content.  For more details, see the Organization Homepage Configuration document.

As with Category Types, you need to add the content via a Content Revision before adding it to the Homepage.
