Creating Web Part Requests

After you have created your Web Part Request templates, you can use the template for the Web Part Requests you want to assign to your user groups. You can also create your own Web Part Request without using a template.

You have to select the type of the Web Part Request to define how the data is presented in the Web Part.

The types are:

List (to show a list of records)

Card (to show a record in a card)

Header + Line (to show a header with attached lines)

But first you must make sure that the following tasks are completed for the Web Part Request that you want to define a tab for:
