Description

This document outlines the various types of user desktops (dashboards) in COINS and how they should be assigned to users.

 

Process

COINS desktops are assigned to users by the User record > Preferences > Current Desktop field and Alternative desktops if more than one exist for the user.

The current list of desktops used in Vistry and what roles they should be assigned to are as follows:
