2.2 Home
When the user logs in to the CRM the user-specific home page can be displayed (this setting is editable by individual users in User Preferences).
The Home page is composed of a set of elements (dashboards) that retrieve information from vtenext. The dashboards can be composed of:
- filters from modules
- RSS to receive feeds from your favourite channel
- the graphics from reports
- windows that allow you to view websites
The configuration is at the discretion of the user, who can enable default elements or create new ones. Each user must create his/her own dashboards, which cannot be made public. To enable or disable a preset dashboard click on the 
icon to access “my preferences”.
The following is a list of the available blocks (which can be activated from "User preferences"):
