Task List widget

You can add the Task List widget from the Widget Catalog to your Homepage. The Task List widget displays a list of all open tasks sent to the current user.

The task list is updated automatically based on notification events sent from the server. A maximum of 200 tasks is shown.

You can configure the Task List widget by clicking the configure option from the options menu. On the Configure Widget overlay panel, you can select these options for the list of tasks:

  • Sort the current list of tasks by selecting either the newest or older option from the Order by drop-down.
  • Filter the list of tasks by:
    • Due date: All, Overdue, Today, Tomorrow, or Later.
    • Search criteria
    • Category
    • Time: All, Today, Yesterday, or Older.
    • Assigned status
    • Escalated status

    If the list is filtered, a filter icon is shown in the widget header with an indication of how many tasks are visible from the total available.

  • Specify the Items Load Order preference that applies when there are more than 200 tasks. The available options are:
    • Newest First - to retrieve the most recent 200 tasks based on creation date
    • Oldest First - to retrieve the oldest 200 tasks based on creation date
    • High Priority, Newest First - to retrieve the highest priority and newest 200 tasks
    • High Priority, Oldest First - to retrieve the highest priority and oldest 200 tasks

On the Configure Widget overlay panel you can select to disable showing the workflow progress indicator on the task overlay panel.

Each ION task has multiple actions that are displayed as actionable icons when you hover over the ION task:

  • Unassign, if already assigned to you
  • Assign to me, if not assigned to you
  • Show in Workflow Viewer/Hide in Workflow Viewer, to see or hide the corresponding workflow status diagram in the Workflow Viewer widget
  • Click the task item in the list to open the task details overlay panel

By using the multi-select feature, you can also mark the selected tasks as Unassigned or Assign to me with one action.
