In the Tasks widget, you can display
all the work-related items that you can access. You can change the
list of tasks that is displayed, and filter the tasks
to display only the items that are currently of interest to you.
About this task
The way in which you filter the tasks depends
on whether they are displayed as a list or in a table.
Procedure
- To display other tasks, perform one of the following actions.
- To display other tasks that you are authorized to view or
work with, use the leftmost menu in the menu bar to select a different
task list.
- To display tasks for which you have a special authorization,
for example, tasks that you own, created, or can manage, use the second
menu in the menu bar to select a different filter.
- To filter the displayed items, select the property that you want
to filter by.
- If your items
are displayed in a table, move the mouse to the column header for
the property that you want to filter by, and click the Set Filter icon that appears to the left of the column
header.
- If your items are
displayed in a list, use the Set Filter box
to select the property you want to filter by.
- For the property that you selected, specify filter criteria
that are appropriate for the property type.
- Click the Set Filter icon to display the items
that match the specified criteria. The filter criteria are displayed
above the list with two icons:
- Click the Pin icon to save the filter for
the current list, the icon changes to indicate that it has been saved.
Click the icon again to remove the filter from the list of filters.
- Click the Eraser icon to display the current
list without the filter.
If you
save the filter, it is added to the first list in the actions bar
for the current task list.
When you clear the saved filter, it is removed from the list of saved
filters. All of your saved filters are lost when you log off.
- You can restrict the filtering further by selecting and specifying
filter criteria for one or more other properties. The new filter criteria
are added to the existing criteria shown in the actions bar of the
widget.
Tip: If the
items are grouped by owner and displayed using the My team's
work filter, the group header for each group shows a workload
indicator. If you are authorized to do so, you can use the workload
indicator to determine the owner's workload for the displayed
items.
