PrerequisitesUse this portlet to create a list of the IFS Applications pages that you frequently work with. If you select "Save Link" from the "Options" menu while working with pages, then a link to that page is added to the Repository of links. My Links portlet can be configured to show the required links from this repository. This option could be very useful if you work with a lot of different pages. Then two (or more) My Links portlets can be added with different links shown in each. For example having one for daily routines and one for Weekly/monthly routines.
PrerequisitesNo setup is required before you use this portlet for the first time, except your personal customizations (see below).
Viewing
the Search ResultsThe search results, your selected links, appear as a list in this portlet.
Customizing
this PortletUsing the Customize page, you can define search criteria and customize the layout of your portlet.
New links can be added to the portlet as well as to the link repository from the customization page. The "Link repository" select box displays all available links in the repository. You can move any desired links from this select box to the right select box (which contains links selected for this portlet) using the right arrow.
New links which are not available in the repository can also be added. Click "add link" and enter the "URL" and "Description" for it in the newly opened window. When adding links by hand try to follow the standard given below as examples. If you have included Context Substitution Variables in your URL, by enabling the Decode CSV Parameters check box, you have the option of decoding them when the link is shown in the portlet.
