We would like to default a dashboard to all users when they login.
I have followed the doc to set Dashboard as preference for all users and other preference to open specific dashboard when they login.
https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/sandiego-now-intelligence/page/use/dashboards/task/set-dashboards-as-home-for-all-users.html#set-dashboards-as-home-for-all-users
However it doesn't work if user has already a preference set, can we not force every user to open a default dashboard when they login, is the doc valid only for users who don't have dashboard preference set ?
Any thoughts ?
Thank you

The user preference will overwrite the default dashboard (which it should, since I think you need your servicedesk agents look at different data than you cmdb admins).
If you really want to achieve this, you could create a scheduled job removing all user preferences related to the dashboard, so they always start the day on the same dashboard.

Yeah I think of only solution is to delete user preferences using a scheduled job. Thanks for the reply Mark.
