Excerpt from First Steps in SAP SuccessFactors – Performance and Talent Management.
Tiles, as shown in Figure 2.2, are squared-shaped items that contain some type of information. The idea behind tiles is to offer users a dashboard all on one screen in which they can see, navigate and monitor a huge range of items across the suite. It is important to understand that the home page is quite flexible. Tiles can be dragged and dropped into different positions within the screen and their names can be changed. Tiles can be configured in various ways: – Mandatory for all users (all users will see that particular tile). – Optional, which means that each user has the ability to hide any tile that is not mandatory. – Dynamic, which means that the system would only display tiles that are relevant to each user. For example, the “Manage My Team” tile would only display to users who actually have direct reports. Anyone without direct reports would never see the tile.
