    To give channel managers access to the Channel Management Console, Salesforce admins must enable the console, assign permissions, and share default components with channel managers, such as the Channel Management Overview Dashboard. Salesforce admins can customize the console some aspects of the console directly from PRM Setup, such as adding custom objects, adding the Leads to Review component, and setting Channel Management as the default app for channel managers. Salesforce admins can customize the console further from the App Builder by altering the Leads to Review component or creating other useful components and adding them to the console.
