A list of jobs

1.2. Customize the display style

You can also set the display format of the assets in the format item list or Map display.As a shortcut, the item list will display only the 4 first assets. The map will display the assets according to their geographical positions. It is necessary that the value of the attribute "GBS coordinates" is filled in so that this data is displayed in the home page.

To delete a shortcut, or duplicate it, click on "...".

Once your custom homepage is ready, click on the button at the top right to publish your homepage.

2. Assignment of teams

To make the homepage visible, we need to define which teams can access it. Go back to the list of home pages. Click on "..." of the newly configured home page, then click on "Assign teams".

Select the teams that will have access to the home page by checking them. To unselect a team, uncheck the checkbox.

Several teams can have access to the same homepage but a team can only have access to one homepage. If you try to assign a homepage to a team that already has a homepage, you will be notified by the yellow icon to the right of the team's name. The old homepage will then be replaced by the new one.

3. Display on the application

Once the homepage is configured and assigned, you can test it by going to the Ermeo mobile or web-app (make sure you are in the right team to access it).

Here, the shortcut "Defects to check" redirects the user to the list of the two elements corresponding to the filter.

💡

Note Once entered in a shortcut of type list of resources (and soon of type list of jobs), assets can be displayed in cartographic format if they have attributes of type GPS coordinates.

Update of the new homepage on the mobile application:

The new homepage will be visible the next time the page is refreshed.

The feature is available in offline mode. For the new homepage to appear, it will also be necessary to wait for the first synchronization (indicated by the banner at the bottom of the page).

Once a homepage has been published, it is necessary to create a new version of the homepage in order to perform the changes. To do this click on "...", then on "Create a new version".

Make the desired changes on the draft version of the homepage. Once the page is ready, click on "Push changes".

To view a published version of the homepage (the one visible on the mobile application by users), click on "...", then "View published version".

The logo at the top left "Play" in green, "Pause" in gray, tells you that the home page is active or inactive respectively.

6. Changing the default homepage

Before creating custom homepages, the standard Ermeo homepage is used "By default". It applies to all users of the application.

Once your custom home pages are configured, the default home page applies:

To users in the application who do not have access to a custom homepage
To users in multiple teams

It is possible to transform a custom home page into a "Default home page". To do so, click on "..." then "Use as default".

NB: Team assignments to the page will be removed but teams that were seeing this custom page will still see it as it becomes the "default custom page".

To return to the standard Ermeo default home page, click on "...", "Use default".

7. Add a custom logo to each homepage

To make it easier for you to identify the different homepages you have created, you can give them a custom logo.

💡

Note The personalised home page only appears for users who belong to a single team. (If a user belongs to at least two teams, they will only see the default Ermeo home page).
