Manage News for Groups/Roles

Use the Manage News for Groups/Roles feature to create, edit, and delete news content. This content is displayed on users' dashboards when they are in the context of the specific group and role.

The Manage News for Groups/Roles feature is available to only authorized users. The updates you make using this feature take effect immediately, and they are applied at the Group/Role level, not per practice, group, role, or user.

Add New Content for a Group/Role

Complete the following steps to add new content:

  2. On the Group/Roles pane, select all the Group/Roles that apply to the new content you are adding.
