Creating labels and pages

Show Me
Labels and pages are containers that hold views. You create a label to group a set of pages, or you can directly create pages on the root of My Portal.
You need to plan the structure of your dashboards: the number of pages and their contents. In this exercise, you will create one label and one page.
To create a label and a page, complete the following steps:
  1. Log in to WebSphere® Portal with an Administrator user ID and password. The WebSphere Portal Welcome page opens.
  2. Go to the Administration tab.
  3. Click Portal User Interface, and then Manage Pages. The Manage Pages page opens.
  4. Click My Portal, and then Add Label. The Page Properties page opens.
  5. In the Title field, type the label title Business Performance Dashboards, and then click OK. An information message confirms the successful creation of the label.
  6. The Pages in my Portal now shows the new label, Business Performance Dashboards. Click it, and then click Add Label. The Page Properties page opens.
  7. In the Title field, type the portal page title Order Processing, and click OK. An information message confirms the successful creation of the page.
Now that you have created the label and the portal page, you are ready to begin adding portlets (views) to them.
