A custom widget is similar to the Company Message widget, in that you can enter a title and body text (one language only), but you can also add a list of the documents assigned to a specific category.
Some basic widgets will have essentially the same contents for all users (Company Message and Recently Published Documents), while others will show information specific to the currently logged in user (My Tasks, My Favorite Documents, and My Recently Accessed Documents). The structure and content of all basic widgets except Company Message are preset and cannot be modified.
My Tasks: Shows the percentage of the user's assigned tasks for the past year that have been completed.
Company Message: Adds text in the form of a subject and body that you can edit to provide a general announcement or reminder.
Important: If you're a site administrator setting up a site dashboard, you can add the Company Message widget but not edit it. Also, the global administrator may have changed this widget's default header from "Company Message" to something more specific.
To edit the text, in the widget header, click , click Edit Header or Edit Body, make your changes, and then click Save.

My Recently Accessed Documents: Lists the last six documents and questionnaires the user has opened. The user can click a title to reopen the document/questionnaire.
Recently Published Documents: Lists the last 25 documents/questionnaires that have been approved and published. Users see only those documents/questionnaires they currently have access to by virtue of their assigned roles and permissions and each document's/questionnaire's settings.
