How to change the default period on a Calendar report?

[Tim Wmson]

How can I change the default period on a Calendar report in Jakarta?

By default, calendar reports are set to 'Month', I would like it to default to 'Week' instead.

If you put it on a dashboard you can do the following.

Navigate to Homepage Admin > Pages.
Click the homepage or dashboard title where the calendar report is located.
Click the Dropzone the calendar report type is listed under.
Click New to define a new portal preference.
Complete these fields:

Name : sysparm_calview
Value : week

if you are sending out published URL you can send it like this something like this.  Obviously your sysparam_report_id would most likely be different as well.

HI Brian, quick question. When i navigate to Homepage Admin > Pages I am unable to see any dashboards. I can however see homepages. Are you confident dashboards should be visible there? Maybe something wrong from my end. 

I'm also using London, maybe it's different there as well.

Home pages and dash boards are different beasts.  I'm not sure they is a way to do it on a dash board.  You my want to put in a HI ticket for that.
