For information about adding news to the Home page, see “Account Settings” in the Salesforce Help.

Today’s Events shows the next five meetings scheduled today. Today’s Tasks shows the next five tasks due today.

The performance chart and Key Deals display opportunity information about a rep’s sales team if they have an associated team. Otherwise, the chart displays opportunities owned by the rep. The performance chart isn’t compatible with custom fiscal years. If you have custom fiscal years enabled in your org, create your own reports and dashboards to display on the Home page.

To populate the performance chart, Key Deals, and the Assistant, users must have these permissions.
