<div align="left"><img src="/files/-LQ0P8UvFSN9cWrExMH_" alt=""></div>

This page lets you view all the processes you have access to, and launch new requests.

To add a process to the **My favorites** list on your User Portal home page, mouseover the process name and click the star outline that appears, which will then become solid (click the solid star to remove the process from your favorites list). You can then open the process from either the **My favorites** or **New request** lists.
