About My eRooms

When you log in to a site, My eRooms is a central location for accessing eRooms, administrative settings if you are a site or community administrator, member lists you have permission to open, and dashboards that summarize information in eRoom databases, project plans, and calendars.

My eRooms has two tabs: eRooms and Dashboards.

From My eRooms, you can

To open My eRooms, do one of the following:

eRooms tab

The eRooms tab of My eRooms provides access to all the eRooms you are a member of, in all communities you belong to. If you are an administrator, the eRooms tab also provides links to site or community settings, as well as community member lists.

The eRooms tab is divided into the following sections:

Organizing your eRooms

On the eRooms tab of My eRooms, you can reorder and group your active eRooms. For example, you might want to group your eRooms by functional organizations (such as Engineering, Human Resources, or Product Management).

To organize the Active eRooms section of My eRooms:

  1. On the eRooms tab of My eRooms, click to open the "Organize My eRooms" page.

Note: You can also remove an eRoom from the Active eRooms section of the eRooms tab by clearing its check box in the All My eRooms section.

  1. When you finish arranging your list of active eRooms, click "OK".

Dashboards tab

On the Dashboards tab of My eRooms, you can display database, calendar, and project plan dashboards. You can add these dashboards via their Notification settings.

While there are no controls in My eRooms for adding dashboards, you can remove them either via the Organize page, or by clicking on the same line as a dashboard's name. Removing a dashboard from My eRooms also clears the corresponding notification check box for that dashboard.

For a dashboard item, clicking next to its name edits the dashboard. For a built-in database dashboard shown on My eRooms, clicking edits the database it summarizes.  

Clicking the name of a dashboard opens the dashboard in the eRoom in which it resides. In the case of a built-in dashboard, the database it summarizes opens to its summary page.

Organizing your dashboards

On the Dashboards tab of My eRooms, you can reorder and group your dashboards. For example, you might want to group your dashboards according to project, or by type of dashboard (databases, calendars, and project plans).

To organize the Dashboards tab in My eRooms:

  1. On the Dashboards tab of My eRooms, click to open the "Organize My Dashboards" page.

  1. When you finish arranging your list of dashboards, click "OK".
