These instructions are adapted from here.

* Begin by saving an Analytics report to a shared folder.

1. In the Alma menu, choose Analytics --> Analytics Object List.

2. Click "Add New Analytics Object."

3. Select the Analytics folder and the name of the report, and type a "Display name".

4. Add your name and the names of Alma users who should have access to the report or click "Add role" to add all the roles, which should be able to see the widget on their home screen.

5. Click on "Add as widget" checkbox under the Report Preview area.

6. Save

The users with the relevant roles can add this report as a widget to their home screen. To do that, go to your Alma homepage and click the icon in the upper right (the plus sign in the blue circle); the report is among the widgets.
