LEA News - DA1100
District Administration > Tables > LEA News
This page allows LEA personnel to add and manage important news, announcements, or upcoming events, and display them on the ASCENDER Homepage Quick View dashboard. Each news entry includes a start and end date, a summary (topic), and a description. Additionally, if needed, entries can be limited to a specific audience based on their permission to an application and breadcrumb (menu item).
Note: If there are no news entries to display for the date range or if the user does not have permission to the application or breadcrumb associated with the entry, the following message is displayed: “No news is good news”.
If this page is not enabled, check with your Security Administrator as the LEA may have opted to not allow access.
| Quick View Title | This field is set to LEA News by default but can be changed. Type a unique title for the Quick View element. The title displays on the element tile when it is displayed on the main dashboard. This field can be a maximum of 40 characters and is required. If the element is not displayed on the main dashboard, the element is listed as LEA News under the QV sidebar column regardless of the title specified in this field.
