Connect Online
The Connect Online Role Center part connects to the Internet and provides you with access to resources, such as product updates, newsgroups, online training, and other self-help tools. For more information, see CustomerSource.
The information is displayed as a continuous slide show of different content categories with links that you can click to open a website and read the full content. The content is automatically filtered according to your role or according to your login to the Microsoft Dynamics Online Community service.
You can use the function buttons that are inside the Role Center part to perform basic personalization. For more information, click the Help button inside the part.
You can add or remove the part in the same way as you do for other Role Center parts. For more information, see Customizing Role Center and Pages.
Note
If your computer loses connection to the content server on the Internet, then the part displays an off-line screen until the connection is restored. Click Refresh to retry to connect to the content server.

Some Role Centers include the online information part by default. On other Role Centers, you must add it yourself. A few Role Centers do not support the part by default and must therefore be configured to show the online information. The following standard profiles in Microsoft Dynamics NAV are supported:
