Introducing Actuate Information Console : Setting options : Creating a default folder for document viewing
 
Creating a default folder for document viewing
To any user having a home folder defined, the My Documents file explorer shows the home folder for that user. To create custom shortcuts to folders in Information Console, copy the My Documents page. Rename a copied My Documents page and set it to load any folder that a user has privileges to view.
For example, copy the My Documents page and set the copied dashboard to always display the Sales folder in the Encyclopedia volume. Then, rename the copied My Documents page to Sales. Users with appropriate rights view contents of the folders loaded on the Sales page.
