OBIEE Directing a user to a default dashboard

Post date: 14-Mar-2011 12:46:52

How to make the OBIEE users land  to a default dashboard based on the department they work in after login. First we created a view containing P_USER, DEPARTMENT and PORTALPATH.

In the variable manager we created an initialization block

We connected this to a session variable called PORTALPATH. This is a OBIEE reserved word so will get a warning, just ignore it.

You need to restart the BI-server and the presentationserver!

Let’s try it:

USER1

USER2

USER3
