Learn how to add a card to SuccessFactors homepage to act as access point for your new employee experience program.
Our employee experience solutions can act as SuccessFactors extensiosn, and you can add them as cards in the SuccessFactors (SF) homepage. In most cases, the SF administrators in the company create this card (formerly called "tiles"), so the end-users to easily access our solution as any other feature.
But if this is not the case and you want to create access card for yourself or your team/unit, this article explains how. Also for up-to-date documentation on how to perform custom home page, we recommend visiting the SAP SuccessFactors documentation.
Login to SuccessFactors and on the homepage search box type Manage Home Page.
Log in to SuccessFactors -> Homepage search box -> Manage Home Page
Once there, select the Organizational Updates option to see what all cards are already configured and available.
Select the Add Card option to start the process.
When the Create Custom Card Wizard pops out, add the Tile Name and Description, and then select Next in the bottom right corner.
The General information appears only in the back end. Setting up the tile name and the subtitle that will appear on the homepage is done in the next step.

Select Next, when you are ready, to continue.
At the Navigation section, you can choose how to use the platform. There are two options. Our recommendation is to use the URL type, where the platform opens in the same or new window.

When done, select Next at the bottom right corner.
Under Assignments, you need to choose:
